grandmother poem

i went up and down the streets
calm as that second summer
two rows of cabbages
babylon-where i go dreaming
a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
among the mountains i wandered
the little white prayers
the endless, foolish merriment of stars
she said
the little pitiful, worn, laughing faces
when, full of warm and eager love
for these white arms about my neck
