mother daughter poem

lived by the river-side
last night the full moon laid a cloth of white
when sea-winds pierced our solitudes
now while my lips are living
sad are they who know not love
i am weary of being bitter and weary of being wise
in an old chamber softly lit
from floor to ceiling
when i returned at sunset
noises that strive to tear
the little white prayers
the dawn was apple-green
i think it just splendid
looking beyond
