Memories of a friend from the distant past. Eighteen thousand, two hundred and fifty days (50 years) have passed since I saw Marc London last.


Poem Artwork

Sweet memories of another time and place

Memories that even time cannot erase

 

I met a friend recently again from 1965

Some folks we knew are no longer alive

 

Marc and I met for lunch and we tried to recall where we hung out

We talked about events like playing handball and going out and about

 

Some friends we remembered and where we were at a certain spot

Many have moved on but some are still around help to connect the dots

 

We really hit it off and picked up from where we were way back then

A gap of more than 50 years but today Marc London is still my friend.

Halleluiah! Amen!

It is certainly wonderful to actually meet old friends again after so long. Each year it gets easier and sometimes, it's only a phone call or email away to make the connection again. I did that with my 50th high school reunion and by reaching out and reconnecting with some of my earlier buddies by simply searching for their phone numbers and giving them a call.
