to walk

 

bandy-legged, newspaper under arm,

skinny little paul—neighbor, friend, critic—

walks and walks and walks

 

he was in the cemetery

when we buried my grandmother—

grayed beard and bushy eyebrows

flittering in the wind

he remembered her fondly

as neighbor, friend, critic

 

he didn’t want a ride (he never does)

but said he wanted to visit

someone earthed long ago

in a distant row of stones

 

his mother, whom I never heard of,

his father, who disappeared,

or a sister, brother, or cousin?

he never said

 

he turned to the hill

that rolled down to a wooded creek

happy to see us, he said,

happy one more day

to walk
