We Were…

An ode to good times

We were…

Days and nights of long walks. Up all night on the phone having long talks.

We were…

Sunday mornings and Friday nights. Even in the dark our spirit was daylight.

We were…

Season's greetings always. To say a goodbye was a lie. We never did try.

We were…

Spontaneity and excitement to no end. The beauty of knowing it won’t end.

We were…

The life of the party. All smiles and hugs. A gleeful face painted on every mug.

We were…

Falcons with outstretched wings high above. Hearts full of empathy, compassion and love.

We were…

Quite a site to see. As an incredible as can be. You and me.
