\nNeglected and alone.
\nThe name and the date are chiseled out
\nOn polished, marbled stone.
\nIt reaches out to all who care
\nIt is too late to mourn.
\nYou did not know that I exist
\nYou died and I was born.
\nYet each of us are cells of you
\nIn flesh, in blood, in bone.
\nOur blood contracts and beats a pulse
\nEntirely not our own.
\nDear Ancestor, the place you filled
\nOne hundred years ago
\nSpreads out among the ones you left
\nWho would have loved you so.
\nI wonder if you lived and loved,
\nI wonder if you knew
\nThat someday I would find this spot,
\nAnd come to visit you<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
