Roses on your epigraph [rondeau]

Grey stone of rest upon the ground
As days go by they make no sound,
But weepers break the silence for
Their tears are splattered on the floor -
..........A mournful lake of pain profound.

The scarlet roses placed around
They formed a wreath of sorrow crowned
On the peaceful head that lies sore -
...........Roses on your epigraph.

Thy heart that used to loudly pound
It seems now nowhere to be found
And we remember days of yore
And see thy face that we adore
On that cold stone upon the ground -
..........Roses on your epigraph.

**Written in the memory of my grandfathers who both passed away this month, but in different years. May they rest in peace!**

A Rondeau is a French form, 15 lines long, consisting of three stanzas: a quintet, a quatrain, and a sestet with a rhyme scheme as follows: aabba aabR aabbaR. Lines 9 and 15 are short - a refrain (R) consisting of a phrase taken from line one. The other lines are longer (but all of the same metrical length).
