birthday poem

let a joy keep you
calm as that second summer
suddenly, out of dark and leafy ways
the long resounding marble corridors
darkest, strangest mystery
if i should die, think only this of me
leave the lovely words unsaid
i said, i have shut my heart
i made a vow once, one only
sitting in his rocker waiting for your tea
sweet and strong
afraid no more, i say
the endless, foolish merriment of stars
