You were like a gypsy
In your youth,
And you traveled to
The islands in the West,
And to Chicago,
And to New York,
And to New Orleans,
And for awhile
I think you tarried
In Another World
In the winter,
In the winter,
Go to Phoenix
In the winter.
Let nostalgia guide you
To sights you saw
And to sounds you heard
As you descended
To the Earth.
Repair to where
The records are
Of births and deaths,
And how two lovers wed.
When did she die?
She died in August,
Long ago.
