Literature Text

it was there

as we stood on the grass
under a grand oak tree
as rainwater fell

into a trench that was
that will be
that is
your eternal bed

and your brothers and your cousins
lay you down to rest
and prayers were said
and tears are shed

as your body
a simple skeleton
weaves through my mind
just as your veins weave
through the oak tree's roots
Feedback would be greatly appreciated.

As previous commenters have said, the last line is fabulous.

Very beautiful poetry.
