THE RECORDING OF A
CEMETERY
By Thelma Greene Reagan
Today we walked where
others walked
On a lonely, windswept
hill.
Today we talked where
others cried
For loved ones whose lives
are stilled.
Today our hearts were
touched
By graves of tiny babies.
Snatched from the arms of
loving kin,
In the heartbreak of the
ages.
Today we saw where
the grandparents lay
In 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
hallowed 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
before
On a day we'd all like to
forget,
But will remember forever
more.
Today we recorded for kith
and kin
The 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 dust
And generations of folks
yet to come
Will
be grateful for your trust.
