REST IN PEACE GUYS
REST IN PEACE OL' GIRL Gert Stemper (at 70 years old) with the Riverboat Rascals Gert (at 38) with pianist Tommy Sheridan Gert (at 81) with her son Frank
Song 8from A Love Imaginedpoetry by Herbert Scott, music by Frank Stemper performed here by Eric McCluskey, tenor and Heidi Louis Williams, piano Each day redeemed by evening The stammering sunset. The moon in its rut of sky. The mind is white wicker. Cows, heavy with the business of milk, nod home from the east pasture. There is a moan that milk makes. The clatter of hooves, the lovely cow eyes. Thrown oats. The rasp of rough tongues. My grandmother’s small hands. It is true the earth cries out at dusk. Its various voices.
