If Love Could

English Cemetery in Syracuse

(A cento poem)

Just one of the
many happy boys
whose lives were cut short
so tragically

Only a grave,
but it needs care,
for the one I loved
is sleeping there

Think not he had
too short a day;
he knew the dawn,
but did not know decay

We loved him. Yes,
no tongue can tell
how much we loved him
and how well

If Love could have saved you,
you would have lived

И вы тогда познаете Английскую истину.
