Dear Ancestor,

Your headstone stands among the rest;
silent and alone
The name and date are chiselled out
on polished, marbled stone
It reaches out to all who care
But it's too late to mourn
You did not know that I exist
You died and I was born.
Yet inside me are cells of you
in flesh, in blood, in bone
My blood contracts and beats a pulse
entirely not my own
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled
one hundred years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left
who would have loved you so.
I wonder how you lived and loved,
I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot,
and come to visit you.
