Brotherhood of the Wordless

Was and is

Posted on June 4, 2023June 4, 2023
She was and is my favourite sister.
It is so easy to imagine her with butterfly wings
because she flew into our lives for such a short time
but she filled our hearts
with such beauty and wonder.
Jacky sprinkled our souls with pixie dust
so we could all find our voices to fly.
Her pixie dust kept us together
and continues to keep us together even now.
She was and is the best sister
we could have ever asked for.
And we didn’t even ask for her. She just appeared
like a butterfly on a breeze one day.
She fluttered our way and filled us with sunlight.
I will always cherish my little fairy sister,
whose wings were spangled rainbow and gold.
I will live my life in honour to her.
I will soar above the rooftops with her dust.
Michael Russell
