memorial poem

hang no wreath
have we no shame?
a little peach in the orchard grew
it was many and many a year ago
the arches of the red bridge
and my name is truthful
have you not heard
see, from this counterfeit of him
sweet with fern and rose
my mother twines me roses wet with dew
eighty years have passed, and more
