For Erling
Eighteen years is nothing.
Even those that may pass
Between each time we
Meet over coffee
Are hummingbird heartbeats.
Such are the strings between
Brother hearts.
No room for discord;
Life never 'gets in the way', we
Just know:
The stars won't move an inch
While we live. So let's just
Walk and watch them,
Even be silent, and in that silence
Do all the catching up
We need:
These could be hurtful times,
But aren't.
As long as you can look up and
Smile at us all, I'm not
Going anywhere.
