The first day began …
“God saw the light was good.”
Everyday the world greets a new sun rising,
we tumble through our days,
reaching deep for paradise –
a place of endless peace and happiness
I wonder about this utopia –
as the light slowly sets
over loved ones
now resting in peace.
Their souls whispering…
let there be light
to mourn the silence that comes
the day life ceases
and nothing remains, except –
our legacy left behind

Great shot and thought. Cemeteries are inspiring places to take photos – I think they are a fascinating blend of live, death, beginnings, endings, new, old and eternity.
