birthday poem

with the sunset
looking beyond
i gazed upon the glorious sky
let us pity those who are better off than we are
could we but know
from floor to ceiling
it was a tall young oysterman
out of the sparkling sea
still thirteen years
i made a vow once, one only
with joy and wonder
arched the flood
beneath the warrior's helm
