poem for dad

while i stood listening, discreetly dumb
there are gains for all our losses
leave the lovely words unsaid
from song and dream for ever gone
risen from the dead
days endeared to every muse
darkest, strangest mystery
look back with longing eyes and know that i will follow
skies they were ashen and sober
