The Gemmell Family,
Your tombstone stands among the rest, neglected and alone, The name and date are chiselled out on the polished marble stone It reaches out to all who care it is to late to mourn you do not know that i exist you died and i was born, yet each of us are cells of you, in flesh, in blood, in bone, our blood contracts and beats a pulse, entirely not our own., dear ancestor,the place you filled so many years ago, spreads out among the ones you left who would have loved you so, i wonder if you lived and loved, i wonder if you knew, that some day i would find you and come and visit you.
Raymond.
