happy birthday poem

why then, must we see?
three days i heard them grieve when i lay dead
the air is full of dawn and spring
why so sad my lovely one?
soft as the bed in the earth
i stand in the cold gray weather
a sky that has never known sun, moon or stars
i heard the wind all day
from floor to ceiling
little gate was reached at last
i can not tell you now
stand here by my side
