    Grandma Jones' Poem



    Another Leaf
    fell from the aged tree and slept
    there in the Garden.
    I followed it to the ground and wept
    as it rested between the headstones.

    Sorrow, bourne on the wind
    exhaled after a long drawn breath,
    and tears wrung from souls And then
    washed the hearts inner depth
    with subtle Hope.

    I close my eyes
    searching with my heart.
    There deep in the garden
    are those who've had to depart.
    O' Eloim your Mercy and Grace are forever!
    And as I listen with my heart
    the wind sings with faint voicing
    of loved ones rejoicing
    After ages apart

    How Merciful the Mercy of Eloim...
