"In life she traveled over the oceans,
Wrapped in a whirlwind of human emotions.
Her life cut short by a world of war.
Left her empty yet still needing more.
By wonders above a spirit approached,
In the shape of a pelican and not a ghost.
He said, "My dear , I will fly you forever,
Because of your passion, I take this endeavor.
Two friends I will bring to help on our flight,
A monkey to fish and feed me by night.
The second a cat so during the day,
My eyes he holds open. Awake I will stay.
Now load up your gear and climb aboard,
Together we fly...
And on they soared."
-Paul Lotz
