Once One

~ ONCE ONE ~

From noon to one
a special hour
this year

Often a poem for lunch
in celebration of
a new creation

One hour
two friends
one young; one old

One gift in blossom
delicate
 yet sure

One heart remembering
what passing
years endure

Two friends; once one
move out into their separate worlds
and sing!
