OK, I lied. Amongst packing and preparing for my trip, I didn't have time to prewrite this last poem. However, an unexpected stop for the night at my grandparent's home (I'm still in Canada, and I'm still marveling at how their highways have speed limits of 110 mph! Oh wait...) gives me the oppourtunity to post this.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Traits die with traitors
but thrive throughout loyalty.
The family is strewn
across thousands of stars.
A son of the wild falls far from all,
but brings with him the character of many.
Unrelated features disguise identical minds,
and bonds break free of the prejudiced judge.
Ties among friends become brothers in life,
but foreign stars must stay removed from the sun.
Two different planets, yet principles alike,
that may never collide, or else they may die.
