AbstractHistoryArchive Description
A poem in which the poet asks her father to let her into his dreams, so they can talk, she can tell him about herself and her son, his grandson. She promises not to overstay her welcome, not to tire him out. The implication is that her father is overseas, presumably in Poland, while she and her son live in Australia.
