footprint poem

daughter, thou art come to die
i saw you hunched and shivering on the stones
glooms of the live-oaks
i hold your heart
a little peach in the orchard grew
sing again the song you sung
i sometimes wonder if it's really true
earth travails
like him whose spirit in the blaze of noon
afraid no more, i say
let us plant
since, if you stood by my side today
the hypocritic days
with joy and wonder
