Educating Each Other Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Talking to one another throughout the years, learning and
educating each other in earnest, never forgetting respect
or dignity at the center of our every conversation.

Playing eagerly into one another's lives with energy and
purpose, standing and leaving situations to be freely
taken apart.

Putting them together with the reality of measures of time
that wait patiently at edges of our lives, contributing and
providing essentials needed while wending our ways through
the process of living and dying.
