I have known her in many guises
The women who have shaped me
Changed me
Moved me
It begins as beginnings do
Tentatively
Orbiting like an apogee
Peeling back disguises
Finding rhythm in friendships
Cherished like velvet
Until we're smitten
Listening
Poetic survivors
Shaping horizons
Aspiring to visions
Grand
We are honeybees
Devotees
