REQUIESCAT, by MATTHEW BILLER First Line: Let the word of sorrow cease Last Line: A fitting cover. | |||
Let the word Of sorrow cease, She had heard Enough of these. Strew no flower. Cut no stone. Let the shower Fall alone. Skies will weep And winds complain -- Let her sleep Here in the rain, Till the grass Creep softly over, Making last A fitting cover. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LET ME NOT HATE by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON A BALLAD OF LONDON (TO H.W.
