Elegy of Our Grandmother by 4JC

A cold dark moon rises,

the clouds part revealing the stars.

We look up asking why

There is weeping, a tremendous sigh

Why have you gone

our grandmother

I remember her silver hair,

her submissive care,

with beautiful wrinkles.

Why did you go,

why did you pass.

our grandmother

Her fingers are cold,

her flesh is pale

And out rides the white sail

But we cannot follow

Our grandmother
