kid poem

i said
softly weeping
last night the full moon laid a cloth of white
when the wind works against us in the dark
i have heard them in the night
city that is not a city
let a joy keep you
often is it not so?
stand here by my side
a poet, having taken the bridle off his tongue
candles toppling sideways in tomato cans
at dawn, he said
sweet with fern and rose
the saddest of the year
