Souvenir

 Just a rainy day or two
In a windy tower,
That was all I had of you—
Saving half an hour.
Marred by greeting passing groups In a cinder walk, Near some naked blackberry hoops Dim with purple chalk.
I remember three or four Things you said in spite, And an ugly coat you wore, Plaided black and white.
Just a rainy day or two And a bitter word.
Why do I remember you As a singing bird?
