Moments

Years of friendship --

of heady conversations
beyond the mundane;

of life stories and
self-defining moments;

of randomly verbalized
sentiments punctuated by

giggles ... sighs ...

A kaleidoscope of
hopes,
plans,
dreams ...

... of Harry Potter
and Peter Pan

and a reality check
of intoxicating
apprehensions ...
uncertainties ...

of simply catching
up with the world,

of being there.
