Mourning Grace


By Maya Angelou


If today, I follow death

go down its trackless wastes,

salt my tongue on hardened tears

for my precious dear times waste

race

along that promised cave in a headlong

deadlong

haste,

Will you

have

the

grace

to mourn for

Me?
(This is one of my favorite poems by Maya Angelou. I thought it would be a good idea to put this poem here, as it is about death.)
