Whose newer memories sing a louder song
Whose heart to open doors does now belong
Wither alone or to the more
Will know the sorrow come before
Thine is cup and thine the draft
All rivers poured from tears to laugh
Only she with friends to bide her time
Shall see herself be left to bid life’s rhyme
A reach, a wink, a bridge to walk across
A touch, a blink, a friend to measure loss
Who then to know a word as was this woman
Or ever know, as ever could, or can
All gone for those who go as us before
All ripples reached to touch a distant shore
Now child stood apart from faded stain
To measure and take note of distant rain
Whose newer memories sing a louder song
Whose heart to open doors does now belong
