Spent yesterday at Boroondara Cemetery in Kew, Victoria. One of the nicest garden cemeteries I've come across in Australia. The volunteers there do an enormous job keeping it all from being swallowed up by the greenery.

I'm putting this out for any Jews who feel like they don't want to criticize another denomination.
This is bullshit. There is no religious reason to bar suicides from our cemeteries. Not facilitating funerals is your choice, of course, but it's cruel to the living. What's next? Shrimp and tattoos? Meh.
"A landmark letter on #MAID, approved recently by #Toronto’s main #Orthodox #rabbinical council—also called the #VaadHaRabbanim—is sounding the alarm about what the group notes is the increasing prevalence of medically assisted death making “inroads” into the local #Jewish community. Citing the figure of 5,000 patients in #Ontario in 2023 who the council describes as being “#euthanized by medical practitioners”, the leading rabbis said they need to take steps to “curb this disturbing trend”: going forward, they will not officiate at the #funerals of MAID patients and will refuse to permit MAID patients to be buried in plots in their #synagogues’ #cemetery sections."

Kerameikos Cemetery
Al PurdySo old that only traces of death remain
for death is broken with the broken stones
as if convivial party-goers came
and talked so long to friends they stayed
to hear the night birds call their children homeAll over Athens rooster voices wake
the past converses with itself and time
is like a plough that turns up yesterday
I move and all around —: the marketplace
where something tugs my sleeves as I go by -

Savannah After Midnight
The enslaved souls whose grief still lingers in the mortar and timber, woven into the foundations of beauty built at a terrible cost. History is not buried here. It breathes. Layer upon layer, like sediment at the bottom of a dark river.https://kandiblaze.wordpress.com/2026/06/10/savannah-after-midnight/

The Watchers: A Rite Becoming
The trees bent inward, their limbs draped in long, trailing veils, like mourners who had forgotten how to leave. Stone markers rose from the earth in uneven rows, some proud, some sinking, all whispering in a language older than memory.https://kandiblaze.wordpress.com/2026/04/30/the-watchers-a-rite-becoming/

Half Shadow, Half Hymn
I belong to the night— to the corridors where ghosts grow honest, where they shed the polite lie of absence and breathe again through memory’s ribs. Where ancestors press their mouths to my ear, whispering in bone-language, where the veil hangs in tatters— not a barrier, but a dare. Love lives here. Even after the burial. Even after the last goodbye forgets its own echo. I have felt the universe inhale— a slow, cosmic breath beneath the skin of thought, binary bones […]https://kandiblaze.wordpress.com/2026/04/24/half-shadow-half-hymn/

Siempre que vamos a Irlanda o Reino Unido pararse a ver cementerios es obligado. Este en Irlanda en Clonmacnoise, en pleno centro de la isla fue genial.
Césped, lápidas y cielo azul. Suficiente. (May. 2019)

Okay, just read this #GhostStory: "The Dead and the #Countess" by #Gertrude #Atherton.
Maybe I'm dim - but I did not understand the ending. Was it meant to say the old priest was killed for what he said to the Count or that the Count understood what the Priest said and had the #cemetery moved - and when the Priest died, he was put in the newer location - away from the Train?
Anyone?

#TombTuesday: An elegant carving on an above ground tomb in a New Orleans cemetery. This one has particular meaning for me (as both a Louise and a mother).
A lot of thought and meaning goes into the design of monuments like this. Urns symbolize death and serve as a vessel for the soul or earthly ashes. A draped urn signifies either the veil between heaven and earth/life and death, or the symbolic guarding of the urn’s contents. Carvings of ivy represent friendship, fidelity, and immortality, while willow branches show mourning. Flowers have different meanings based on their species. Roses are for love, beauty, and motherhood. Lilies, innocence and purity, marriage, and resurrection. Ferns stand for humility, solitude and sincerity.
