My life long friend Friendship which goes the distance We stand on the edge of the great abyss This last little bit we have to take alone. A life long friendship nourished and encouraged Learning from you how to love each and every one Learning what it means to be I and thou Heading downstairs for one more round Looking in the mirror Integrity or despair? It's all been there But this life is like jumping Into Tahoe on a warm summer day, And hitting mountain thawing snow You could do it I never could The naked fisherman in the Golden trout wilderness The Buddha on the road We stayed so young While we got so old Couldn't have done that Without you The ocean is still out there with your footprints in the morning sand Your molecules in the laps you swam The poetry of motion The healing brought All of this and nothing more Every day our friendship, a blessing In everyway.

For my dear Stuart
My life long friend Friendship which goes the distance We stand on the edge of the great abyss This last little bit we have to take alone. A life long friendship nourished and encouraged Learning from you how to love each and every one Learning what it means to be I and thou Heading downstairs for one more round Looking in the mirror Integrity or despair? It's all been there But this life is like jumping Into Tahoe on a warm summer day, And hitting mountain thawing snow You could do it I never could The naked fisherman in the Golden trout wilderness The Buddha on the road We stayed so young While we got so old Couldn't have done that Without you The ocean is still out there with your footprints in the morning sand Your molecules in the laps you swam The poetry of motion The healing brought All of this and nothing more Every day our friendship, a blessing In everyway.
