anniversary poem

within this lowly grave a conqueror lies
eighty years have passed, and more
the smell of the rose so false, the thorns so true
long ago, in the young moonlight
all down the years
not from the whole wide world
good woman
be patient, life, when love is at the gate
soft as the bed in the earth
