Your unknown limited time to LOVE is your most valuable possession

This profound poem says so much:

 “Only a Call Away”

Around the corner I have a friend, 

In this great city that has no end,

Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,

And before I know it, a year has gone.

And I never see my old friend’s face,

For life is a swift and terrible race.

He knows I like him just as well,

As in the days when I rang his bell.

And he rang mine.

But we were younger then,

And now we are busy tired men,

Tired of playing a foolish game,

Tired of trying to make a name.

“Tomorrow” I say!

“I will call on Jim”

“Just to show that I am thinking of him”.

But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,

And distance between us grows and grows.

Around the corner yet miles away.

“Here’s a telegram sir” – “Jim died today”.

And that’s what we get and deserve in the end.

Around the corner – A vanished friend”.
