I CANT BELIEVE I AM FINDING THIS PROMPT AT 6:21PM EDT

***


when someone dies we lay a stone
upon the stone that marks their grave
to weigh their body in the ground,
but yours was taken in the waves
and so no normal stone would do.
no pebble, round with mottled gray
did you leave o'er your father's tomb
above the ground where he won't lay,
and so on yours we leave this weight
hard won and earned one decade passed.
the world now knows your story, friend.
we swam to make your dreaming last.
with hope to find your body shoal'd
now on your grave, we leave our gold
