grandma poem

the shadows of the ships
brief on a flying night
in their ragged regimentals
sitting in his rocker waiting for your tea
god
i loathed you
the long resounding marble corridors
i stand in the cold gray weather
when, full of warm and eager love
for these white arms about my neck
eighty years have passed, and more
