To A Special Friend


All your days be blessed with love and peace!

Please forgive my lateness, and endeavor

Patiently to grant me my release.

Years come and go; our friendship will increase.

Birthdays are like maps or clocks or signs:

In them we see an order more profound.

Reality lies deeper than our lines:

Time ticks as quarks and galaxies go round.

However arbitrary they may be,

Dates mark measures in the march of fate;

And since I'd like to see your destiny,

You can be sure next year I won't be late
