Coronzoa Deshon Greene

In a quiet garden where memories bloom,  
Mr. Coronzoa Greene found peace from the gloom.  
Retired from battles, he sowed seeds of grace,  
In soil turned tender, he carved out his space.  

With hands worn and weathered, he toiled in the sun,  
Each petal, each leaf, a victory won.  
The laughter of flowers, the rustle of leaves,  
In the heart of his garden, his spirit believes.  

Yet the day came softly, with whispers of night,  
When the sun set on Coronzoa, extinguishing light.  
As the stars started twinkling, a gentle refrain,  
His legacy lingered, like drops of sweet rain.  

He fought for his country, with courage and pride,  
But here in his garden, true battles abide.  
He taught us of patience, of nurturing care,  
In the bloom of his flowers, his essence is there.  

So we gather together, in sorrow, in cheer,  
To celebrate Coronzoa, whose heart was so dear.  
In each blossom that opens, in each fragrant breeze,  
His spirit lives on, in the rustling leaves.  

Rest now, dear soldier, your duty is done,  
In the garden you cherished, you’ve truly won.  
May the earth hold you close, as you’ve held us too,  
In the beauty of nature, we remember you.
