marriage poem

the air is full of dawn and spring
it was a tall young oysterman
still thirteen years
a thousand silent years ago
into the silent land
love has been sung a thousand ways
gingham dog and the calico cat
the darkness rolls upward
winged shadows sweeping by
in the dark and peace of my final bed
above them all, looking down
