poem for dad

that strange companion came on shuffling feet
i saw you hunched and shivering on the stones
days endeared to every muse
i heard the wind all day
as evening falls
when i was broke in london
with her hair flaying wildly
my soul is a dark ploughed field
sing again the song you sung
to the passionate lover
