Even after all of these years
once
in
a
great
while
I think of you
and wonder if
I’m in the wrong
alternative universe
without you
I imagine how you look
with an effervescent smile
like your cousin Katie
and with her round face
your body lean and fit
much taller than me
but with my deep
worldly brown eyes
your head held high
with poise
At times arrogant
other times humble
especially with your dad
