My friend Teddy shared a poem with me today, by Edward Leary.
The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
Wrapped up in a five-pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
"O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are,
You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!"
Here's a link to the poem in its entirety.

You'll see them in a.... very short period of time.
These three adorable old codgers are veterans, and best friends. They're having a get together with other vets today.
I ran into them while I was getting breakfast this morning. Their laughter, gentle self-mockery, and cheer was infectious.
While I proceed to utterly and completely go bonkers about something I've been looking forward to for a very long time.
