The Calm Before The Storm

lulled by silence
a hint of sunshine
traces of spring

the cemetery is silent
the flowers still
the solitary mourners perched by gravestones
alone in their grief

the village stands empty now
its buldings abandoned
each person swallowed into silence

the seasons pass
spring, summer, autumn, winter
new mourners visit each day
to place flowers on the graves
