Ski Reverie

ski day reverie
filled with powder grins,
soft turns, silent flakes
always a long day
yet happiness takes its time
falling from the sky

The Scrapping-Together-Book

so different from your sister's
when i spent many joyful hours 
piecing together the photos of her youth

your youth is marred, robbed, broken
and i don't know why
i don't know why

and it might be the not knowing
that will take us both
