While others I'll never forget your graceful entrance.
I am humbled in this home, hallowed by your presence.
How long a friendship lasts is not what makes it important
But rather the ability to endure such tests.
Some of us have been forced apart by time, distance and mortality;
Others just as grand, but never quite the same as any one of you,
Have come alongside to shine in this grand and vast Milky Way.
If I could I would have us all build a permanent home together,
I would raise it up as a shelter; never a place of want or need.
We would shelter this storm and others that would come and pass.
But we can't, this story was not meant to unfold this way.
So arm your promises and practice your "Good-byes"
But let's walk together, please, over one, last, final hill.
