Fleeting Moments

I'll always love this view
and here it is for posterity . . .
our last Christmas
in the Tower.

Take beauty when you can
and live life to the fullest,
like our dear late friend
Louie Girard.
Carpe Diem, Louie.
We will miss you so.

For Joey's Birthday, tomorrow

Birthdays
by Robert William Service

Let us have birthdays every day,
(I had the thought while I was shaving)
Because a birthday should be gay,
And full of grace and good behaving.
We can't have cakes and candles bright,
And presents are beyond our giving,
But let lt us cherish with delight
The birthday way of lovely living.
