Poem Commentary

In memory of my grandmother Ann Clare Huston. She passed away on June 5 2010. She had written this poem and I feel that it deserves to be appreciated by more then just her family and friends. She will be deeply missed....

Annies's Poem

I think it will be winter when I die.
(for no one in the North should die in spring)
And when It's almost dark, I'll set my feet
where a white path goes glimmering
up a hill and see far up, a light.

Would you think Heaven could be so small
a place as a lit window on a hill at night?

And come in stumbling from the gloom,
Half blind into a firelit room,
Turn around and see you all,
and there abide.

If it were true, I almost wish it were
tonight I died.

Ann Clare Huston

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
