Poems
Aug 2019
I wonder what would happen to this world
It is a simple stone to honor a piece of Earth.
It asks the passerby a question.
It is a challenge
And a meditation:
“Oh, if a man tried to take his time on Earth
And prove before he died what one man’s life could be worth-
I wonder what would happen to this world.”
Yes Harry, I sometimes wonder too
But few among the living are as generous as you.
I place a smooth simple stone upon his stone
to let him know that he is not forgotten.
Thirty Eight years gone, but not forgotten.
Harry Chapin 1942-1981
