friends

I just came across this today and thought I would share it with my friends and tell them how much I appreciate their support and friendship. A friend is worth more than gold! Stan
Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end;
Yet, days go by and weeks rush on
And before I know it a year is gone.
And I never see my old friend's face;
For life is a swift and terrible race.
He knows I like him just as well
As in the days when I rang his bell
And he rang mine. We were younger then
And now we are busy tired men --
Tired with playing the foolish game;
Tired with trying to make a name;
Tomorrow, I say, I will call on Jim,
Just to show I'm thinking of him.
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes;
And the distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner! Yet mies away --
Here's a telegram, sir -- "Jim died today!"
And that's what we get -- and deserve in the end --
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
