old friends

old friends
precious collectables
can be chosen
unlilke family

but they become family
a new home made family
to support one another
over the hurdles of life

in joy together
and in sadness
and when life renews

friendships last

reflecting after
Eli's 31st azkarah
when we got together
with his mother, widow
daughters and grandsons
and lots of friends
31 years
after he was killed by an Egyptian sniper
