Old Friends/Bookends |
Old friends, old friends |
Sat on their parkbench like bookends |
A newspaper blown through the grass |
Falls on the round toes |
Of the high shoes of the old friends |
Old friends, winter companions, the old men |
Lost in their overcoats, waiting for the sunset |
The sounds of the city sifting through trees |
Settles like dust on the shoulders of the old friends |
Can you imagine us years from today |
Sharing a parkbench quietly |
How terribly strange to be seventy |
Old friends, memory brushes the same years |
Silently sharing the same fears |
Time it was and what a time it was |
A time of innocence |
A time of confidences |
Long ago it must be |
I have a photograph |
Preserve your memories |
Ther all thats left you… |
