grandmother poem

leave the lovely words unsaid
they in the darkness gather and ask
i am singing to you
stay no more
all down the years
over the river they beckon to me
softly now the light of day
afraid no more, i say
when freedom from her mountain height
when, full of warm and eager love
simplicity
