THE CEMETERY ON THE HILL

THE CEMETERY ON THE HILL

ON A COLD WINTER DAY
I WALKED THE CEMTERY
ON THE HILL A COLD WIND
FILLS THE AIR AS I COULD 
HEAR THE WHISPERS OF 
THE GRAVES  IT GAVE ME 
CHILL AS THE SUN FILLED 
THROUGH THE LITTLE 
CLOUDS IN THE SKY 
AS I WALK THIS HILL 
I BEGIN TO READ THE 
GRAVES  AS A COLD WIND
CAME UP  AND I THOUGHT
I SAW SOME ONE  OR WAS 
IT JUST MY SHADOW AS 
WALKED THIS HILL I FEEL
THE STILLNESS THAT 
FILLS THE AIR AND I CAN
HEAR THE VOICES FROM
THE GRAVES AS I WALK
DOWN THE CEMETERY 
ON THE HILL I THOUGHT 
I SAW SOME ONE I LOOK
BACK IT WAS THE SHADOWS 
OF THE GRAVES AND THE 
TREES OR WAS IT 
THE CEMETERY ON THE HILL

Nicely written Greg and very unsettling at the same time , one can feel the cold and that wind as well.
And just reading some comments you certainly know your pilgrim history and wrote your superb poem around that.
Thanks for writing and sharing and that snowy pic just adds to the cold poetic climate as well.
Five deserved stars and pinned too.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

\I have this fascination with death. I acknowledge it and its ;power over mortal man. Yet I want to disdain it and walk all about it and belittle it.. The walk on this hill with the gravestones... is the mock and the refusal to let it manipulate your perception... great write
