MY LOVER'S STONE
I laid my love down to rest
I laid a rose upon her breast
I laid pennies on her eyes
I kissed my love, I said goodbye
I laid my love down to sleep
I heard an angel start to weep
I laid a rose upon her breast
I laid my love down to rest
I laid my love down to die
I heard an angel start cry
I blew my love one final kiss
I laid my love down to rest
I lay beside my lover’s stone
I laid beside her on that ground
I drank the poison chalice down
I lay beside my lover’s stone
I laid my love down to rest
I laid my head upon her chest
I laid me down in fading light
I closed my eyes and said goodnight
Engraved upon my lover’s stone
A broken heart, a broken home
Forever more, we rest as one
My love and I, my lover’s stone

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Thank you Maureen
I am tickled that you are revisiting some of my earlier efforts. I hope you find the odd poem that appeals![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)

The purpose in life is to have fun.
