She will not look down -
will never give up - will
trace invisible contrails
making circles in the skies
over many lands, teasing
blue waters that wave
back, then swell and fold
over stories forever untold -
while she grows old
looking up (never drown)
as dark arcs deepen
under her arid eyes,
and time flies.
