We’re moving in May.
We’re moving in June.
We’re moving in July.
My carefully curated collection
Of friends is dispersing.
I renew my resolve
To make the most of every opportunity.
For many friendships, no more meetings
Than I have fingers. So few chances
For fellowship in this lifetime.
And even for those sons who live with me,
The number of days from birth to eighteen is
Finite: 6574 or, if lucky, 6575
Depending on birth year and leap year.
Make the most of today. You won’t get it back.
