Picture 2
Ruth Long’s Picture Choice: 1
Title: Elegy IV
I do not hear a dirge today
though the clock-tower tolls for one
I do not see a funeral march
though six dark tulips bow to the sun
I do not see your name in stone
though I see your eyes in your son
I cannot cry for what still lives
so I weep for what's left undone
