The Ostentatiousness Of Life Is Drown By The Austerity Of Death Poem by Nudershada Cabanes

Tombstones stood like hedgerow
In a wide and grassy graveyard
Carved from white marbles
A piece of marker for identification
With only the name of the deceased
And the date of birth and death inscribed
It is ironic how death can make
An illustrious life seem so small
Even the tombstones are replete of titles
That people have achieved in their lifetime
As though a sneer to the grandeuseness of life
They once enjoy while alive
Death makes everyone insignificant
A person who used to live in big mansion or villa
Could be contain in a vase or an urn
As his remains are cremated
The ostentatiosness of life is drown
By the austerity of death
In the grassy graveyard, every being that once lived
Are equal as they lay to rest in peace
