Gardening

Gardening (detail)  Martin Locock acrylic on board C 2010


She stoops to place fresh
Flowers on the gravel square
And removes browned blooms

Her work done, she stands
Her eyes cloud as she reads the
Simple inscription

Soon she'll rejoin him
She weaves away through thickets
Of marble headstones
