THERE'S A TIME . . .: Unknown

Old Mennonite Burial Ground Lincoln, ONT

Nameless. Faceless. A life lived in shadows.

Hidden neath vibrant lights of human stars.

While Rest in Peace all prayers to honor

Go often to the well-known other.

Alone yet close but distant daily

Barely leaving footprints across their paths

While roads and streets hail the famous and rich

As funerals fill with millions who worship.

Who then takes a moment to remember

A soul who’s passed from shadows onto yonder?

Are there tears are there prayers ever to be shown

To all who led quiet lives,

whispered away to stardust, unknown.
