A Year-End Sentiment for All to Read
(in iambic pentameter, no less!)
I sit before my screen this solstice day
and think upon the people that I've met
or come to know this year and years gone by.
Since life is full of comings and of goings,
some folks you meet you never meet again.
But some of these you wish you'd better known
before their path and yours became uncrossed.
'Tis for this very reason that I write
a few words of remembrance and of thanks.
I would not come here were it not for you,
the regulars, who make this place their home
online. Your knowledge helps my brain expand.
Whether it be 'bout politics or beer
or Axiom (which is really why we're here).
The fact that we don't see ourselves in flesh
does not prevent some friendships from forming.
So lift a glass and drink a toast to you,
my fellow boarders. I do love you guys!
