RACHEL, by                    
First Line: All day she is walking
Last Line: Over the dead.


All day she is walking
Over the heath,
Her worn hands clutching
A wilted wreath.

All night she is talking
To things unseen,
Her cold eyes piercing
A dark screen,

And always seeking
Something red
In ghost-grass creeping
Over the dead.
