The very ones that collectively
thought our younger years
would never end..
Yet here we were, gathered
together, years later..
We spoke briefly of those
tender young years of days
gone by..
We mainly spoke of the
tumultuous journeys we had
encountered since we last were
together..
We spoke of finding happiness..
But also spoke the truth of loss..
Delving into our sometimes saddened
lives, yet knowing we sat on mountain tops.
The honesty was compelling..
Not one expounded on brevity..
There was no boosting, no prideful
tales.. We sat as equals looking deep into
each of our inner beings with true friendship,
with caring and understanding..
Each one weathered the storms of life with courage,
with intellect, with strength ..
Yes, they were and are my childhood friends..
We found renewal in our friendships ..
Inner strength with fortitude and love have carried each
one through these many years to the present..
It is an honor and a privilege knowing each of them..
I pray they all stay strong and beautiful until we meet again..
With All My Love,
Patsy
