short poem

had he and i but met
some one complained to the master
long has the summer sunlight shone
i have known the silence of the stars and of the sea
the shadows of the ships
my son is dead and i am going blind
sun and wind and beat of sea
hang no wreath
he's gone
i saw the clouds among the hills
stir
i cannot always feel his greatness
glass-blower of time
