In solemn silence, a stone stands tall,
A sentinel of memories, beyond them all,
A name, a date, a life’s brief span,
Etched in granite, a legacy to plan,
The whispers of loved ones, long since past,
Echoes of laughter, forever to last,
Tears shed, and moments shared in grief,
A tombstone’s testament to a life’s relief,
In this quiet graveyard, where shadows roam,
A monument to memories, a heart’s home.
