tradition calls for me
to leave
one stone for you to know I came

With thanks to Becca for a different visit, and introducing the tau ku form. Cemeteries are not my favorite places. However, this is a respected tradition - so if you do see stones upon markers you will now know why, if you didn't before. Please leave them there.
I like the idea of leaving a stone after a visit. I appreciate your initial tau ku! Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Becca and add my "nicely done" for your first time. You are braver than I to try a new form. I pretty much such do free forms and follow my heart.
ReplyDeleteI have also not heard about leaving a stone to let them know you have been there. If I ever do visit a cemetery I hope I will remember this and follow this tradition. Thanks for sharing it with us at Theme Thursday and thank you so much for joining us. I oh so hope you will join us each week and be part of the TT family.
Have a fantastic weekend.
God bless.
many small stones grace the gravestone of my family....To me it shows love and respect, and a desire to DO something, anything....
ReplyDeletethis is beautiful Jules. I'm not familiar with the tradition, but I like it. I'm planning to leave a stone for my father next time I visit. happy week to you Jules.
