On The Death Of Friends In Childhood Poem by Donald Justice

On The Death Of Friends In Childhood

Rating: 3.3


We shall not ever meet them bearded in heaven
Nor sunning themselves among the bald of hell;
If anywhere, in the deserted schoolyard at twilight,
forming a ring, perhaps, or joining hands
In games whose very names we have forgotten.
Come memory, let us seek them there in the shadows.
