Silenced Army

BRITISH MILITARY CEMETARY

Life and Death rarely agree, but here they compromise. They watch us silently from underneath the luscious trees, all of them sharing the cross that is so prevalent in Rome. Nothing and no one can faze them; they are a silenced army. The flowers grow respectfully; none dare to surpass the height of the mighty stones, the graves of the fallen brave.
