Gail's Genealogy

Since I discovered the computer and what you can accomplish with it,
I have become hopelessly addicted to my family history.

I feel honored to have a glimpse into the lives of my ancestors.

A TRIBUTE TO OUR ANCESTORS

Dear Ancestor
Your tombstone stands among the rest;

Neglected and alone.
The name and the date are chiseled out
On polished, marbled stone.
It reaches out to all who care
It is too late to mourn.
You did not know that I exist
You died and I was born.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse
Entirely not our own.
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled
One hundred 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 someday I would find this spot
And come to visit you.
