Beschreibung
The Collected Writings of W.C. Ruckeris a collection of poetry and prose that was written by William Claude Rucker (1871-1950). Rucker wrote on an array subjects, including the beauty of nature, love, loss, and war.
Rucker did not publish his works during his life. While in Iowa, he bestowed a large roll of sheets filled with hundreds of poems and bits of prose to Edith Yarrow of Rockwell, Iowa. Edith and her family held onto the collection, passing it down through four generations with the goal of sharing this beautiful writing with the world.
It makes me sad when e'er I think
The world will still move on
As bright and joyously as now
When I am dead and gone.
The rivers run as blithe and gay
Down to the sunlit sea,
And few remain of all my friends
Who still remember me.
