Graveside

the Element's end

Five stood ‘round one graveside

Tears in their eyes

“Kindness may pass

but never truly dies”

Four sat ‘round one graveside

Near another old plot

“Keep Ponyville laughing

That’s what she would want”

Three knelt ‘round one graveside

Their sextet now halved

“Death took the one thing

She’d have taken back”

Two lay ‘round one graveside

Near four aging stones

“A hard truth to swallow;

she found her way home”

One cried at the graveside

of five dear old friends

“such morbid irony

by life’s cruel pen”

Naught stirred at the graveside

save life incarnate

words left unspoken

dripped upon granite
