child poem

look back with longing eyes and know that i will follow
when i was a boy at college
i have heard them in the night
candles toppling sideways in tomato cans
a very remarkable history this is
why are the things that have no death
along the banks
one by one, like leaves from a tree
in their ragged regimentals
some one complained to the master
sitting in his rocker waiting for your tea
tripping up, falling down
splendid and terrible your love
