Carol,

An article about the poem's writer will appear here sometime in the future. Apparently this is her "most famous" poem.

Both the poem and photo were lovely. I look forward to the article on the author!

Thanks Carol. Right now I'm having a difficult time locating a photograph of her (usually I like to include one). When completed, her story won't be posted until at least after August 25th , since my I've pre-posted articles up until then.

Janice, my morning walk is through the cemetery where she is buried. I will place a flower on her grave today and let her know she is not forgotten.

Amy!

That is just so sweet of you to do that. The link in the original story will take folks to your article showing her unusual tombstone.

More on Best of NH 2007"We live in a history-drenched part of the world, but Cow Hampshire is much more than a tour of the New Hampshire “Memory House” (thank Howard Mansfield for that excellent term). It’s a look at the state’s past and present through the eyes (and words) of a true Granitophile. Janice Brown digs through the stories of New Hampshire with an amazing knack for pattern recognition, finding the connections and the nuances that make the dustiest of footnotes into something relevant and entertaining." -- NH Magazine
