Old Friends.

It seems inevitable that friendship will one day descend and disappear into the sunset, yet the wonderful memories will always remain and linger....

My Old Wikinut Friends

Friends, oh dearest, you've got into
me, soon to be old, ah, to be Wikinut
old friends, when time passes us by
too quickly, inevitable as life shared.

We'll become old friends pretty soon,
the magic we will leave behind, new
authentic stars to reach, with both our
hands ours to keep, clasp forevermore
that's photographed into immortality!

We'll sing now, catch my voice, I'll lend
you my ears, then we will dance forever
in the melody we'll all dream about when
the show is over and the curtains fall,
all old friends, we shall always be.

Terribly Strange To Be Old

I will remember you, old friends, even
when we arise at dawn and retire at dusk
separated, each in his own special way,
hey, in old age, our time will both decay,
but our minds the Book of Life will tell
us how both our lives have once
intertwined very wonderfully and how
young we shall always remain in thought.

Inspired by Simon and Garfunkel song: Old Friends; and the
Beatles's: When I'm 64

As we get older it is harder to make friends in real life.

I do not under estimated friendships I make on line, I married a woman who started as an on line friend.

I treasure you all (even if I dont always find time to comment on your articles)

Thank so much, Mark. That was very sweet of you. I also treasure all my friends here, including you and Johnny.

I've noticed glaring grammar errors but I let them stand because the context will make the meaning clear to everyone.

Friends of life, do walk with me,
In life and love, shrouded in mystery.
Creating avenues of solution for past,
With deep resolutions made to last.

They always hear you when they do transcend,
For me I believe they always ascend.
For in the light they feel love and smile,
To be the destiny just all the while.

For purity comes in the white light of love,
It shines forth in abundance from Above.
To be hidden away deep in abyss of heart,
As memories forever never ever to part.

Hey, Bev, my dear friend, none will and can separate us. You've been a constant support to me since I began, and I relish the thought that one time we can all meet.

Oh, yes, I've thought about hearing some of your music. Will email you shortly after I've finished commenting on all of our friends' articles. Take care, Bev. Hugs!

Thanks, kabzboy. How young am I? I'm fine, hahaha. No, no, no, I won't tell you.:D

Btw, take all the necessary precautions in case there's an aftershock in the aftermath of the recent earthquake in your province.

Memories are made of these, and will never die! When we are old, recent ones might fade but not the sweet old ones that will ever shine like the sun from within; set with us and then rise on another shore! Touching thoughts, Buzz - siva

Hi, sivaji. I'm afraid no so much to get old actually as only to get too old to do anything, looking very funny as I reach the point.:D

Thanks, my friend. Namaste!
