funeral poem

stir
this is the ship of pearl
why so sad my lovely one?
she heard the children playing in the sun
if i should die, think only this of me
these hearts were woven of human joys and cares
look out upon the stars, my love
melancholy, blue it was
do not grieve that it is over
night is dark, and the winter winds
lo! 'tis a gala night
i said, i have shut my heart
as a naked man i go
