(For my friends and friendships that last forever) By happenstance musings entwine In juvenescent day. A meld of minds yielding combine Of staid and impish way. Ensuing years directions verge, Yet visions' focus sound. Thence come about in tidings merge Seas drink of life's abound. Next generation's kin to pledge Sodality in pact. Parturient of others' fledge In nonage seasons past. From Heights whence unsung souls were bore In friendship's staunch avow, Like Cobblestones from paths of yore, Enduring bonds endow. |

The strains of Brahms went rolling through my mind - and I found myself in some sort of tavern - a youth being wise beyond years - singing "gaudeamus igitur..." so differently than I did then - maturity putting a whole different complexion on it. I loved this you sesquipedalian you |
