AN OLD BURYING GROUND by ELFRIDA DE RENNE BARROW

First Line: DUST/ DRIFTING HILLWARD
Last Line: DUST.
Subject(s): CEMETERIES; DUST; GRAVEYARDS;

Dust
Drifting hillward
Through speckled sunlight,
And below

Dust
Dulling the new green
Of upstart weeds,
Greying into earth shadows,
Aging into oblivion --
And below

Dust.
