A decade ago,
We stood immortal, fully embracing
the philosophy of Carpe Diem.
We seized not just the day,
but each and every moment
of every day we shared.
We stood immortal, invincible
in our youth.
Our number, while never tallied,
often numbered thirty or more
in the triangle, on Town Mountain,
Paradise Flats, or the lake.
Were we not the rulers
of the universe we surveyed.
A decade ago,
We knew nothing of responsibility,
living life to its fullest, our only task.
Each day we shared spent running
H.F.W.F.O.
no thought of consequence or regret
A decade ago,
death had yet to enter into our midst,
now each year it seems
finds our number fewer by two or three
A decade ago,
We had not went a hundred different paths,
leading to different towns, different lives,
No longer seeing each other every day
or even every year.
A decade later,
I often think of what we did not have to say
to one another then.
We each knew what the others
meant to us and the place
they kept in our hearts.
A decade later,
I simply want each of you
to know how much
each and everyone of you
meant and still mean to me.
