Description:

THE RECORDING OF A CEMETERYBY THELMA GREENE REAGAN Today we walked where others walkedOn a lonely, windswept hill;Today we talked where other criedFor Loved Ones whose lives are stilled. Today our hearts were touchedBy graves of tiny babies;Snatched from the arms of loving kin,In the heartbreak of the ages. Today we saw where the grandparents layIn the last sleep of their time;Lying under the trees and clouds -Their beds kissed by the sun and wind. Today we wondered about an unmarked spot;Who lies beneath this hollowed ground?Was it a babe, child, young or old?No indication could be found. Today we saw where Mom and Dad lay.We had been here once beforeOn a day we'd all like to forget,But will remember forever more. Today we recorded for kith and kinThe graves of ancestors past;To be preserved for generations hence,A record we hope will last. Cherish it, my friend; preserve it, my friend,For stones sometimes crumble to dustAnd generations of folks yet to comeWill be grateful for your trust.
