Excerpt from Memories and Musings

When Friend Meets Friend

We love the scene where friend meets friend -
The quickened step, the mutual gaze,
The proffered hand, the heart ablaze.
No vicious plot,
All ills forgot,
When friend meets friend.

Past scenes return when friend meets friend -
Perhaps a day has passed or more,
Perhaps a year, mayhap a score.
Years count for naught,
Past scene's the thought
When friend meets friend.

Time takes to wings when friend meets friend -
A chat or two, an hour or so,
A chore deferred, the sun sinks low,
The day is done
Ere it's begun
When friend meets friend.

The mask is raised when friend meets friend -
Those secrets held to self most dear
One must confide to trusted ear.
One joy, one fear,
One common tear
When friend meets friend.

Two Pens

At the conference table over the sea
Two pens were reflecting in deep reverie.
One pen was from Krupp, quite boisterous and bold,
And one was of Bethlehem steel, we were told.

Said the pen from Krupp to the Bethlehem steel,
"Let's confide in each other and our histories reveal."
So these are the stories they tell to each other,
The pen of Krupp and his Bethlehem brother,
As they lay on the table end to end,
Where the League of Nation's men have penned.
