grandmother poem

under dusky laurel leaf
he came and took me by the hand
a thin gray shadow on the edge of thought
suddenly, out of dark and leafy ways
look out upon the stars, my love
the long resounding marble corridors
there was a time in former years
let a joy keep you
when i go back to earth
the smell of the rose so false, the thorns so true
we lay
