Is it cold ?
Is it cold where you lay ?
Does your gritty quilt keep you warm ?
This place where you lay is a place of peaceful sorrow,erasing all hopes of tomorrow and another day..
Tell me dear , is it cold where you lay ?
You lay among an oasis of greenery and grey markers...do these keep you warm ? ,is your resting place warmed by a passerine's song ?
Does the gales breath chill you ?
Does the sleet disturb you ?
Does all of these disturb your slumber and cause you dismay ?
Tell me dear , is it cold where you lay ?
Do you hear the lamenting of your callers by your bedside ?
Does their fond recollections fill you with pride , or does all these memories and lamenting fill you with dejection ?
Does the skies precipitation cause you dismay ?
Dear loved one.....
Is it cold where you lay ?
