REQUIESCAT, by MATTHEW BILLER First Line: Let the word of sorrow cease Last Line: A fitting cover. | |||
Let the word Of sorrow cease, She had heard Enough of these. Strew no flower. Cut no stone. Let the shower Fall alone. Skies will weep And winds complain -- Let her sleep Here in the rain, Till the grass Creep softly over, Making last A fitting cover. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...INTERRACIAL by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON ON WORDSWORTH by DAVID HARTLEY COLERIDGE THE LIGHT THAT LIES by THOMAS MOORE THE DAYS GONE BY by JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY GARDEN DAYS: 3.
