Choices: A Tribute
Speechless landscape
flooded my eyes
I see why
you did not want to leave
Battling
ocean land weather
to survive
eking out enough
to stay alive
deciding to go
build a better life
A hard choice
you found your way
I only know you
through family stories
We never met
but you will never be forgotten.
