final works: among them, Schubert's, Verdi's, Richard Strauss's Four Last Songs. He
wrote A Distance Apart in the last months of a long illness. Bill had always been a poet
of the wondrous, the evocative meanings of every day things, of the dailiness of

life he does not want to lose, an earth he does not want to leave in which everything
lives its amazing life, "all of us together, partners in the world."
