Friends ~
"What do we affect during our lifetime?
What, ultimately, is our legacy?
I believe, in most cases, our legacy is our friends.

We write our history onto them, and they walk with us
Though our days like time capsules, filled with our
mutual past, the fragments of our hearts and our minds.

Our friends get our uncensored questions
and our yet-to-be reasoned opinions.  Our friends grant
us the chance to make our grand, embarrassing, contradictory pronouncements about the world.

They get the very best, and are struck with the absolute
worst, we have to offer.  Our friends get our rough drafts.
Over time, they both open our eyes and break our hearts."

Dedicated to our dear friend and mentor, Dorothy, with gratitude and love.  Best Wishes, Dorothy.
