funeral poem

melancholy days have come
candles toppling sideways in tomato cans
no prey am i of poor thoughts
there is an hour of peaceful rest
there are gains for all our losses
have you heard
so lost
the old west, the old time
among the mountains i wandered
in the cloud-gray mornings
gaily through the fields we danced
under a spreading chestnut tree
i shall see a star tonight
