Lord, help me dig into the past 

and sift the sands of time

that I might find the roots that made

this family tree of mine

Lord, help me trace the ancient roads, 

on which our fathers trod, 

which led them through so many lands, 

to find our present sod.

Lord help me find an ancient book 

or dusty manuscript, 

that's safely hidden now away, 

In some forgotten crypt.

Lord, let it bridge the gap, 

that haunts my soul when I can't find, 

that missing link between some name, 

that ends the same as mine.

Henry Lawes

1595-1662

Dear Ancestor,-

Your tombstone stands amongst the rest, neglected and alone

The names and dates are chiselled out on polished marble 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

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 one hundred years ago

Spreads out amongst 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.
