poem by John Lavan

 

Slowly

I decided to tell you

slowly
when my Dad
walked up the beach
in baggy shorts and sandals
on his last ever holiday
he was fascinated by pebbles, shells,
people passing in bright shirts
and he smiled in the sun
taking all the time
in the world to
walk and look:
slowly

I decided to tell you.
