This is College (for Sabin, my friend with perfect hair) I sit in a room Filled with cows, And a friend We only hear of having. One of those We find In our college days, our changing days, And because they stayed so true, Then, During so many crazy ideas, dreams, romances, And disappointments, They are the ones…. To last a lifetime. The truth in those words Realized while kicking back, ‘Somewhere over the rainbow,’ And ‘Pennies from heaven.’ Just living in the moment, Feeling so much comfort In each other’s silence. And, Yes, When we’re 60, 70, 80…and sitting around In rocking chairs on the porch of a cabin In the heart of Montana’s majesty, Grandchildren gathered ‘round our feet…. We’ll laugh at the stories we have to tell, Tears of joy and love flowing…because We’ll be remembering, Just those moments. Sitting with a friend, In a room full of cows, Listening to good music, Doing homework, or whatever. Feeling God’s blessings When he gave us each other— To be friends to last a lifetime. W.Hertz-1994
