His Stone.
By ColorMeToxic
For twenty-two years
and twenty one
days
a man has been buried
with no stone for his grave.
No sentiments there,
just a thin metal plate.
With
his first name,
last name, birth and death date.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After twenty-two years,
and
twenty-one days,
this man will finally have,
a stone for his
grave.
Paying tribute, to a man
who so deserves this,
and,
I can finally stop worrying
That he feels forgotten.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He never
was.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Friend proved to me today, that I CANNOT give up on society.
Good
People do still exist. Lucky am I, to know Him.
I feel honored.
Blessed even. Thank you.

The deceased indeed deserve proper respects. I was devastated when I heard that my mother's grave was defaced. Thankfully though, there are generous people tending to that cemetery. I'm glad that you found a faint glimmer in society, write onward.

I'm so sorry that happened to your Mother's grave. Some people do not deserve to live among the civilized.
