son poem

tripping up, falling down
that strange companion came on shuffling feet
why do you always stand there shivering
there was a time in former years
better than granite
gingham dog and the calico cat
in mournful numbers
star-dust and vaporous light
as a white candle
among the smoke and fog of a december afternoon
full of tears
passing through huddled and ugly walls
