Him

The lord's page held my finger
Swift memory stole the pause
Here I’ll sit and so long linger 
Again I’ll wonder who he was

Moved as if by angelic wand
To soles and autumn leaves
Carried back to Walden’s pond
Amongst observant trees

It’s there I held his hand
And wondered what might be
As we walked that storied land
How does he remember me
