Sanctuary
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)

Wasted on the sands

Of some forgotten beach.

Left to the ages as they come

And to us, try to teach.

 

O let the remains lie still,

For sanctuary has come to them.

The plunder of thoughts misguided,

Yet they rest in a peace, as foretold.

 

The harmony of the dead

Is not heard, it resounds in the heavens,

Where only the angels sing along,

And carry a tune of the many.
