~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The VanZandt Cemetery by Mary Elizabeth Mahnkey Strangers have bought the VanZandt place and I wonder if they know Of a little plot upon the hill where sad white roses grow. Will they see that way, that solemn way that leads up to the hill, Where the gate is closed in sorrow and everything is still? The old Captain lies here sleeping in the fields he loved so well, Where melodious tones still echo from his old farm dinner bell. We have two darlings lying within this sacred sod...... Oh, remember, please, dear strangers, this acre belongs to God. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
