mother daughter poem

backward, turn backward
calm as that second summer
we break the glass whose sacred wine
when night drifts along the streets of the city
i said
and my name is truthful
at dawn, he said
shadows lay along broadway
your body's motion is like music
over the river, on the hill
once this soft turf
the little white prayers
see the tentative
with joy and wonder
