The Year
That year
Was disappointing for Her
but I never saw Her heart broken.
In August
Her spirit animal came,
A Hawk.
Her Hawk watched over her …
until the day after Christmas
when they flew away together.
Brave
Smart
Generous
and Wild
We will always love you.
To You
and to your Escort
To Greener Woods and Pastures
in the wind.
