For a friend undergoing a terrifying health dilemma; kind of a review of old times.

Back In The Day

Certainly,
There were times we had
Some were good and
Some were bad,
Plenty of laughter
Back in the day,
Hanging out with
Uncle Jay,
Taking trips
On a wing and a dollar,
Years of study
From High School to scholar,
Then somewhere, someday
Fragments coalesce,
The chaos of life
Is no longer a mess,
The answer seems startling
Why, it took so long to know,
That all the pieces were important
In this emotion picture show.
