Poem -
THE CEMETERY ON THE HILL
Like 7 Pin it 3ON A COLD WINTER DAY
I WALKED THE CEMTERY
ON THE HILL A COLD WIND
FILLS THE AIR AS I COULDÂ
HEAR THE WHISPERS OFÂ
THE GRAVESÂ IT GAVE MEÂ
CHILL AS THE SUN FILLEDÂ
THROUGH THE LITTLEÂ
CLOUDS IN THE SKYÂ
AS I WALK THIS HILLÂ
I BEGIN TO READ THEÂ
GRAVESÂ AS A COLD WIND
CAME UPÂ AND I THOUGHT
I SAW SOME ONEÂ OR WASÂ
IT JUST MY SHADOW ASÂ
WALKED THIS HILL I FEEL
THE STILLNESS THATÂ
FILLS THE AIR AND I CAN
HEAR THE VOICES FROM
THE GRAVES AS I WALK
DOWN THE CEMETERYÂ
ON THE HILL I THOUGHTÂ
I SAW SOME ONE I LOOK
BACK IT WAS THE SHADOWSÂ
OF THE GRAVES AND THEÂ
TREES OR WAS ITÂ
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.âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸

\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
