daughter poem

the child who threw away leaf after leaf
out of the sparkling sea
we were not many
there was never a sound beside the wood but one
the fragrance came
i saw him once before
and so it goes
royal feast was done
sing again the song you sung
why do you always stand there shivering
i sometimes wonder if it's really true
