Hallowed Ground

Great, great grandparents, Charles & Diana Winfield, Fritwell, Oxford, England

Your tombstone stands among the rest; neglected and alone.
The name and date were chiselled 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 before I was born.
Yet each of us are cells of you in flesh, in blood, in bone.
Our blood contracts and beats a pulse entirely not our own.
Dear ancestor, the place you filled so many years ago
Spreads out among the ones you left who would have loved you so.
I wonder as you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew
That someday I would find this spot and come to visit you.

Apparition


When going through my camera manual I spotted 'Multiple Exposure' so I tried to use it in this photo. I thought black and white might help the look. If you look carefully you'll see the "apparition" (me facing away) standing in the shot.
