This poem in which nothing is accomplished is full of internal movement. I enjoyed the emerging images and stories which remind us of all the things that have passed..and because they are remembered in a mindful way, they have not died. I hope this is not the poet's last cry before eternal silence...unless he's referring to the next poem, in which the speaker is eternally silent yet evoking a world's worth of imagery in the stillness.
