I sat in a graveyard <br />and watched people visit there. <br />They stood above a grave in silence <br />and spoke to those buried there. <br />They said a silent prayer <br />for God their soul to keep. <br />Laid some flowers for their loved one <br />and a tear did weep. <br />Even as the years pass <br />you will always see them there <br />with their thoughts of their loved ones <br />who had long passed away. <br /> <br />4 May 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-silent-prayer-3/
