For my Sister, who I will always remember as Peter Pan.
Two winding roads brought us here
with twists and turns
unexpected
Like ribbons intertwined
our paths would cross
until
Separately we traveled
each path’s distance
unknown
One winding road leads me on
with bends and forks
unforeseen
My path’s sharp angles
obscure choices ahead
unwritten
Always looking, searching
plagued with questions
unanswered
Looking through your eyes
or you through mine
unblinking
Flight impossible for fear
now you soar with me
untethered

Thanks, Katia. This one demanded to be written … most of it on board the plane. I felt her presence like the surrounding notes of my favorite song.
