poem for dad

i saw him once before
out of the window a sea of green trees
i made a vow once, one only
i am singing to you
i am weary of being bitter and weary of being wise
among the smoke and fog of a december afternoon
a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
i burn no incense
there is no flock, however watched and tended
