with humorous thoughts
taking leaps the rest of us couldn't-
but she's more sure of herself,
settled,
in the way that three years in the Navy
will bring anyone.
There's also tint of sadness,
from time to time,
that comes from a funeral.
But I'll ply her with ice cream,
and we'll laugh about pigeon culture,
and maybe we can beat back the sadness
for another day,
