He who asks
Of your well being, and rises
To your need
Is a friend for ever.
We lie to the
Moments of togetherness by forgetting, however,
Just the same
Remains the bond – hidden in time.
The future will
Evolve from
Adam to atom
And so,
To be mature,
A friendship must attend
To what matters --
Nostalgia, dreams, and the present, so that
We can draw
Each other, every now and then,
In a semi-circle,
Over a cup of coffee.
