grief wearing its best clothes, because love refuses to be quietly buried
means The outward expression of grief after a death — the wearing of black, the rituals, the period of sorrow openly observed.
from From Old English 'murnan,' to grieve or be anxious, rooted in a Proto-Germanic verb related to remembering and caring deeply. The spelling drifted toward 'mourning' over the centuries, and despite sharing a sound, it is unrelated to 'morning' — the dawn and the grief only happen to meet on the tongue.
