Beneath the blanketing of snow,  
A memory beneath the grass -- 
It lays there, dormant, before spring 
Brings its new life to pass -- 

But memories, like us, all die: 
We have our moment, then we're gone 
Like sun rays on a winter snow 
Just after dawn -- 

So here lies we who read these words.  
We had our days, our cracker crumbs, 
Then went to sleep beneath the snow
Until spring comes
