Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

The Last Walk Together

The Last Walk Together

Shrouds cast purposed a dire malaise,
inscribed plaudits hallow tombstones,
absorbing bores coped brimmed blase,
a raised veil, e'er wet-eyes stream blued,
stays balanced, shifted acquiesce,
resume pace, neglectful of mood,
umbrae molds clear, a mien shone glit,
poised calm prosed a pious meek speech,
laid wreaths, last steps rounds a life flit.

Your poem evokes voice of grief--as is the case in the last walk together. Splendid images you captured of the resting place, William.
