child poem

though love repine, and reason chafe
my son is dead and i am going blind
pharaoh, king of egypt's land
still thirteen years
when freedom from her mountain height
i said, i have shut my heart
which i wish to remark
i do not pray for peace
i stand in the cold gray weather
a sky that has never known sun, moon or stars
