father poem

last midnight
softly weeping
pushing out, struggling vainly
soft as the bed in the earth
pharaoh, king of egypt's land
glooms of the live-oaks
above them all, looking down
melancholy days have come
three years ago today
sun stepped down from his golden throne
a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
i cannot always feel his greatness
among the mountains i wandered
