Haiku about memorials

Wow! Y'all did great stuff last week.

We had these two beauties from my Mom:

Near Barbarenque, France
Hidden memorial to 
four shot by Nazis.

-------

In Little’s Corners
Revolutionary War graves
Near old Grange Hall.


And this great piece from Gavin:

“...A German Soldier“
Black cross. Eternally shunned.
Conscript or zealot?

DDR had this:

Walking at midnight,
A grave on the high bluff top .
Hear the Pacific.

And I was really moved by this one from Megan Willome (you can check out her book on poetry here):

Margarita, mourned 
from Cuba to Assisi.
All her bushes bloom.

(We bought this house from Margy when she went to live with her daughter, and I get to enjoy what she planted in her garden every day.)
