THE AFTERWARD.
(By Arthur G. Lewis)
All the emblems of affection
Now are dead and withered bowers.
Who viii lay wreath OF friendship
ON the ruins of faded flowers?
Those he loved are still among us:
Lips he kissed are trembling still.
Struggling with their hopeless sorrow.
Bowing to the Unknown will.
Grief is only real when earnest,
Sorrow only true when told
After funeral wreaths are faded,
After LIGHT has turned 10 gold.
Let the hands that clasped his warmly
Now towards his loved ones bend.
Nav they find some consolation
IN the friendship OF his friends.
