neglected and alone.
The name and date are chiseled

on polished, marble stone.
It reaches out to all who care
It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist
You died and I was born
Yet each of us are cells of you
|
|

In flesh, in blood, in bone
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse Entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the
place you filled
One hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you
left
Who would have loved you so. |
|
|
I wonder if you lived and
loved,
I wonder if you knew That someday I would find this spot, And come to visit you.
