Marlais

Dying alone on foreign ground, death gripped his blessed hand Raging hard across the pond, Manhattan, his last stand An oak to fall on alien soil, all seeds to heaven thrown His words cast free into the dark, that ‘Good Night’ now his own (Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017) 'Dylan Marlais Thomas'

I've always felt connected to him, Caren. When I first read him in 1962, he changed my life. Thanks
