[on In May]
My dear Father,
It's early in the morning.
I feel totally at peace.
I'm not in any pain.
In fact, I'm happy.
I have all your photographs
Arranged around the sofa
In a great big semi-circle
On the floor.
I'm sitting upright
Looking out into the garden.
It's bathed in sunlight.
I feel very close to you all.
I am with you, Father.
And everything is joy!
Everything is joy.
Anna's coming
And May is taking its leave.
Adieu,
Adieu,
As always,
With love,
Your son.
