father poem

are you awake?
like him whose spirit in the blaze of noon
she said
my mother taught me that every night
along a river-side
when i looked into your eyes
day is done
sitting in his rocker waiting for your tea
when the wind works against us in the dark
i stood
will you glimmer on the sea?
over the rooftops race the shadows of clouds
i bid them all farewell
still thirteen years
