UNKEMPT MEMORIALS
Stone crosses along the roadside,
Part-covered by weeds are spied…
Rejoice, families
From mourning are freed,
‘Though the feeling of loss never dies.
—Jonathan E. Caswell

Thanks…tried to submit an article on roadside memorials to a local tourist magazine, which thought it too morbid! But this gets the point across.
