retirement poem

the air is full of dawn and spring
do not turn your head
i flung my soul to the air like a falcon flying
grieve not for the invisible
into the silent land
night is dark, and the winter winds
blossoms of babies
these hearts were woven of human joys and cares
rocked in the cradle of the deep
my mother twines me roses wet with dew
those black eyes i once so praised
never in all my life
