The beauty of a friend cannot be bettered - good to know you are talking about old and future times Andy - - nothing as good a tonic for anyone.

\'In a conversation.
It may be just words
But those words are important,
Important in our lives,
As it is so good to talk,
To talk to each other as friends,\'
a shared secret, a gifted smile
am empathetic ear
or an encouraging word;
there\'s so many layers
and such diverse ways
to engage and appreciate
our friends, yet
it takes a really insightful mind
to recognise
their worth: before its too - late...!
(a deeply nuanced and necessary message, Andy
as usual I really like your pacing
you have a unique way of creating flow
without excessive use
of rhyme or rigid structure
feels, so effortless to read
what a great quality, dear poet)

Something For Yourself.
SureshG said:

Time out for yourself, totally, for we all need to recharge as well. Sometimes the best time out is to do absolutely nothing, I mean to go blank, mentally and physically.
As far as your wish to be around for a long time, HE/SHE got your message.

Something For Yourself.
L. B. Mek said:

yeah, wise words
to remind us, of life\'s simple truths
before we try and save someone else
we must first insure
we have our own oxygen masks, of survival
in place...!
a wonderful message and read Andy
(my go to farewell song
is a predictable: \'My Way\' by Sinatra;
cynically self-indulgently stubborn
that\'ll be: me
even after I\'m, long gone... lol)

orchidee said:

Why yes. And St James Day yesterday, Sunday.
James and John were asking for a high place. Then the other 10 disciples squabbled with them. Jesus taught them of it not being all \'me, me, me\'.
Either that, or He sent me to them, to punish them by singing to them. lol.
