Too soon another year has come to pass ,
Nostalgias' call to answer guides my thoughts .
On this occasion I must say my friends
with-out your help it all would be for naught .

Two years among your company's gone by ,
since ceased my aimless wandering through time ,
and not one moment here shall I lament
encouraged by your words I've sought to climb ,

with meager foot-hold on this jumbled path
and steps un-certain aided by you all .
Acknowledging such favor back in kind ,
seems but a pittance , would it weren't so small .

Of gratitude whose wealth cannot be spent ,
I freely give you all each last " read " cent .

It has been our pleasure to have you along on our poetic journey! Sure doesn't seem like two years for me either! Where does the time go? It goes by much too quickly when spent in such wonderful company! Congratulations, Dr. Moose! Great heartfelt expression and a sonnet to boot!
