Old Friend


Greetings, Old friend
to you once more
in the old, old, way
of friendship's law
We may not have
much time to spend
recalling memories without end
but in our hearts we know we share
a store of days that were rich and fair
through warmth and laughter
and friendliness,
cloud, and sorrow, and happiness
Still you are one to the very, very, end
the one you remember best
Old friend
