poem for dad

for then without
when the wind works against us in the dark
very well, you liberals
within my hand i hold
the old songs
lady, your heart has turned to dust
doubtless i remember still
my mother taught me that every night
we who stood
i saw the first pear
you say you love me
a few more windy days
