The poems title is Mother. The wreath and poem is attached to the old concrete bridge railing of the bridge that use to be used at the intersection of Lamonch Road and Southern Shore highway. IT CROSSES over the brook that runs out of hell Hill Pond. I saw this poem and wreath there in September 2019

They’d trim the trees, paint the cross and letters. Both have since passed away. They still have a cabin on Lamanche Rd. I’m sure there’s other out there as well.
