grandmother poem

out of the sparkling sea
for these white arms about my neck
the agony of having too much power
to what shall a woman liken her beloved
a thousand silent years ago
sun stepped down from his golden throne
in new york harbor
the air is like a butterfly
all day to watch the blue wave curl and break
which keeps
up from the south at break of day
for truth, for love
stay no more
had he and i but met
