life poem

there is an hour of peaceful rest
a storm is riding on the tide
my mother taught me that every night
a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
a very remarkable history this is
risen from the dead
star-dust and vaporous light
they ask me where i've been
he'd even have his joke
a bird sang
made up of loveliness alone
he speaks not well
under dusky laurel leaf
