Such personal historic placement,
a moments pause reflecting such
memories in Cheshire smiles.

Somehow silent while trapped in
luminous surround. Distant laughters
are audible to those that care

to lend an ear as trees shed summer
blossom, baring naked fragility to
ever extending winter, unafraid, unabashed.

A crowd now gathers to pay respect,
the funeral procession soon commencing.
Finally, these matters can rest in tomb undisturbed,

No plaque to commemorate. The only intrepid
prize to uncover, an accursed shroud cast in
the shadow of a once faithful man.
