Graveyard

What is recorded here

Saints' Island Graveyard is a graveyard in County Longford, Ireland. Perhaps the island setting isolated the dead from living noise, giving them a quiet place to rest while people watched from a distance. Maybe the name suggests holy protection around the buried, as if the land itself refused to release them. Imagine carts stopping at the island edge, bodies carried across narrow ground, and doors closing without ceremony because the place already understood loss.
