First Line: Once more I touch the sweet green grass
Last Line: The dust that holds a grassy knoll.
Subject(s): Mortality
Once more I touch the sweet green grass.
I wonder if its blade can know
How much the tender thought of it
Makes me more loath to see it go.
I wonder if the gentle grass
Can feel the quiver in my soul
At the thought that some day I will be
The dust that holds a grassy knoll.
