Gravestones by Chris

Looking at the wheat, with the cool wind blowing over you

standing in front of the dead, silence breaks the air

with only the wind whistling in your ear

then you hear screaming

you start to have flash backs of memories of this person's grave

with her sister next to her

you think you are standing above the dead and below the

heavens

the silence breaks open

because

your friend is screaming and fooling around.

 

A Haiku by Greg

hard cold colored rocks

that stick out from the muddy ground

like brightly painted books

 

Graveyard

Lonely and sad, cold, sweet and sonorous.

Dark and light, not a scent of light.

Hard and old, where

all is joy and happiness.

Scared and frightened, wind of light

shines on this stone all night.

 

Why are no people coming here?

 

Soft and light, old cracks and silence.

Wishing, wishing to come back.

They sleep in dust in the cold graves.

Under me I feel it.

I feel it in me.

I want to be alive in the old days.

The broken hearts of them and me.

Fishell by Forrester

 

A big rock.

A big person?

His name, Fishell.

Cemetery Trees by Lindsay

tall trees, alone, still

watching as they've always been,

watching the graveyard

Haiku by Ben

we know the size

we know the weight

but we don't know the importance now

The Guard by Samantha

Above the grounds of the dead ,

below the heavens,

stands a tree with a warm hand on every tomb,

where lie the most respected residents of

Leverett.

White Stone by Mikko

It stands out

In the graveyard

with two flags

Death by Jon

Cold gray stones

filled with death

death in the graves.

Cold gray stones

filled with tears.

Sadness, sadness

and sorrow.

Gloom, guilt, and

revenge.

Grey and Damp by Julian

The rain falls

The snow falls

The earth is cold and misty

Filled with terror and revenge

The earth is filled with coldness and damp dark places people have never discovered

Horrible, horrible places that people don't believe but are there

And are there to haunt you

For the rest of your life.

The 'A' by Noah

it is an "A"

it is small among the others

it is alone

 

Ashley by Ashley

I found my name

standing by the dead

resting quietly

with her husband.

 

I found my name

so still, so quiet

while the winds blow

she rests with her husband
