Walking with Jimmy ...



We walked with Jimmy between tilting headstones - 

Somewhere here lay one of my dear dead - 

The memory of a gentle smile -

A keen gaze that never minded my foolishness - 

Afternoons in the small house -

Aunts, laughing, with their bargains from the market in Charlotte Street - 

An uncle with jet black hair - 

Walking with Jimmy -

Soft rain falling from the darkening sky -
