mother poem

i have known the silence of the stars and of the sea
she limps with halting painful pace
i make my shroud, but no one knows
within this lowly grave a conqueror lies
i am weary of being bitter and weary of being wise
out of the window a sea of green trees
sad are they who know not love
there is a country full of wine
