What is recorded here

Indicated is a children's burial ground in County Mayo, Ireland. The smallest graves cluster together like a forgotten village, marking young lives cut short before they could leave deeper marks elsewhere. The name still sounds clinical, as if a finger once pointed at the place and stopped, but the ground itself remembers every small body it took.
