son poem

i made a vow once, one only
it was many and many a year ago
and as we walked the grass was faintly stirred
the little white prayers
do you think, my boy, when i put my arms around you
a pen of steel
dear wife
o fair and stately maid, whose eyes
the shadows of the ships
you are beautiful and faded
i love to steal awhile away
