funeral poem

it was the autumn of the year
within my hand i hold
this is the ship of pearl
i know what you're going to say
i saw the first pear
a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
eighty years have passed, and more
a life on the ocean wave
a mile behind
i had a dream and i awoke with it
softly weeping
