***

They planted a garden together,

A product of their tears and aching bones,

Showered it with their love and ardor,

It shone like the stars above — glittering,

That so many envied what they had,

It so happens that they died too,

Buried by their lamenting children,

Beneath the very garden that they planted.

***

"Do it together, transform your aching pain to love and till death do you apart..."
