daughter poem

she heard the children playing in the sun
when sea-winds pierced our solitudes
in his guarded tent
at midnight
as a white candle
have you not heard
some of the hurts you have cured
do you think, my boy, when i put my arms around you
happiness
when i looked into your eyes
sleep sweetly in your humble graves
by the shore, by the sea
the ships are lying in the bay
