Description: In Memory Of My Mother I do not think of you lying in the wet clay Of a Monaghan graveyard; I see You walking down a lane among the poplars On your way to the station, or happily Going to second Mass on a summer Sunday - You meet me and you say: 'Don't forget to see about the cattle - ' Among your earthiest words the angels stray. And I think of you walking along a headland Of green oats in June, So full of repose, so rich with life - And I see us meeting at the end of a town On a fair day by accident, after The bargains are all made and we can walk Together through the shops and stalls and markets Free in the oriental streets of thought. O you are not lying in the wet clay, For it is a harvest evening now and we Are piling up the ricks against the moonlight And you smile up at us - eternally. Patrick Kavanagh |

| samuelgodfreygeorge ::: Favorites 2007-12-25 18:25:04 A great mother still lives in the mind of a great poet. The line, "Among your earthiest words the angels stray" is far too moving. I am not sure whether it is possible for a man who has not lost his mother to fully understand this experience. As usual you have thoroughly celebrated another man's thought. __________________________________________________ | |
