birthday poetry

one by one, like leaves from a tree
i saw with open eyes
my mother twines me roses wet with dew
on and on
three days i heard them grieve when i lay dead
i stand in the cold gray weather
love me at last, or if you will not
happiness
as evening falls
to be able to see every side of every question
in mournful numbers
