Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 652 (Weeds)

The grass had grown-

It certainly set the tone.

.

There was a time when a

crowd had come by-

But, as time passed, there

was no one left to cry.

.

The spot had been kept up

for so many years-

Visited often with so many tears.

.

Generations later, a new crowd

started to come by-

To visit their ancestors, is the

reason why.

.

To pull the weeds and to clean the

headstone-

To bring to life what had been

overgrown.

.

To celebrate those who had lived so

long ago-

To give their final resting place, a

sudden glow.

.

The grass had grown-

It certainly set the tone.
