Tombstone
Engravings and what they mean
The YELLOW
FEVER epidemic of 1878- Martin, TN
Dear Ancestor
Your Tombstone stands among the rest,
Neglected and alone.
The name and date are chissled out
On polished, marbled stone.
It reaches out to all who cares
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
Enirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled
One hundred years ago
Spread 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.
