The tears that were shed on that cold morning
clouds were covering the bright-golden sun
those were tears, that of a widow mourning
she was all alone but the world still spun

The cemetary , near the ocean shore
covered with green grass, filled with does and dear
sitting on moss covered rocks, hearing lore
at the gray waters, we surely did peer

I can't really remember what was said
my ipod's music blaring in my ears
she caressed his plaque like it was his head
she had been remembering all the years

Her heart was broken, was easy to see
Now her husband was buried, by the sea.

Good poem, but some of the rhymes are kinda... strained. 'Morning' and 'mourning' sound the same... you should probobly avoid rhymes like that. 'We surely did peer' sounds a little awkward, probobly beacuse no one says things like 'surely did' anymore.

But still, not bad, not bad at all.
