I always thought only rich and well-known people were buried at St. Melaten Cemetery in #Cologne or #Köln, but it's not so. On a walk through it today, I found many small, simple, creative graves where urns and coffins had been deposited. I did not find the tall black angel who gave me nightmares when I was a young boy. Also, it smelled like fall. #cemeteries #burials #grieving
