family poem

like eagles on up high
last midnight
i saw you hunched and shivering on the stones
rose and amber was the sunset on the river
though i am little as all little things
to be able to see every side of every question
i said
hang no wreath
sing again the song you sung
her face is fair and smooth and fine
beneath the warrior's helm
once this soft turf
gone before us
who is the runner in the skies
