CANTO POR EL QUE VIVEN LOS DIFUNTOS (IV): SOEUR MARIE KEYROUZ Y WALT WHITMAN

 THANKS IN OLD AGE

 (For precious ever-lingering memories (of you my mother dear...)

The two old, simple problems ever intertwined,

Close home, elusive, present, baffled, grappled.

By each succesive age insoluble, pass'd on,

To ours to-day- and we pass on the same

(Blessed those who pass on the same: life between and against death)
