Even though
our 31st
was
held
less than
three weeks after 911
We came together
under extraordinary
circumstances
all
with heavy hearts
That evening was special
for we realized in unspoken words
with certainty,
the importance of
Cherished Friendships
...That we are
and
always have been connected.
That we share the core of our being
with
our friends
whose travels took
different roads
with
varied
destinations
but who
all came
from
the same place
