My Contribution to Memorial Day a bit late sorry I was away

The Lone Piper II

The lone piper
Once again stand proudly
At attention
His heritage
Displayed upon his face
As he waits his turn
While echo taps
Is played hidden
Within
The surrounding forest
At its end
He will begin
To gently squeeze
His bag pipes
While solemnly pacing
Around my grave
Blurring heavenly tunes
Of Amazing grace
Once they lay
The green sod upon me.



By William Bonilla
