Dear Ancestor,
Your tombstone stands among the rest;
Neglected and alone.
The name and date are chiseled out
On local slate for stone
It reaches out to all who care
It is to late to mourn
You did not know that I exist
You died before I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you
In flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse
Entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled,
So many years before
Spreads out among the ones you left,
Who would have loved you so.
I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot,
And come and visit you.
