The Tea Party
"Go on forth young graduates, And show us who you are You're now our future leaders We know you will go far" And so commencement ended Pictures done and people changed Now, off to private parties All orderly pre-arranged But four young girls stood waiting Until they were alone "Let's head out to the party And tomorrow, we shall phone, Each other and we'll organize Our final tete a tete We'll plan something so special A thing we haven't thought of yet!" So, they went their separate ways And they thought of all the places That would hold a fitting luncheon For their girls group "The 4 Aces"" They all got home around half past five And all slept till half ten After breakfast, phones were ringing As they planned to meet again. They picked a little tea house called "Flavored Leaves of Green" They would meet for a tea party They would really make the scene A week today they chose to meet To celebrate together They'd meet for tea and cakes Regardless of the weather And one more time, they'd choose to wear The prom dress from that year Big frilly hats, and long white gloves and all that froo froo gear The day arrived and they showed up All ready for their tea The Aces all decked again Their luncheon was at three The girls all talked about their plans Of school and summer work Two would council campers While the other two would clerk They loved their day and played the part Of ladies with no cares They knew it was the only time They'd dine here, to be fair. The final act of these four friends Before they left and packed Was to sign a pledge between them all You could say, a small pact "In twenty years from this day forth We'll meet again for tea On July twenty seventh Of the year Two thousand three" The sheet was signed and on their way They booked their reservation The girls all hugged and said goodbye To end their celebration Now time went by as it always does And each girl went a different way But in twenty years, they all looked forth To meet again that day The firtst Ace, Jill, went on to school And married while she studied She lost track of her Aces friends Their paths were slightly muddied She went to school in Omaha A vet she chose to be Her marriage lasted fifteen years And...well, children...she had three. Andi, chose to work instead She left town to chase rainbows She knew that here, her pot of gold Would be wherever she chose She moved out to Chicago Where she was a big success She became a photo artist With a Lakeshore Drive address Cindy, well...dear Cindy Married five times through the years Each one was shorter than the last And one....just fifteen beers They chose to split the very night They they chose to become one He left with her head bridesmaid And the catfight....it was fun Cindy spent two nights in jail For beating up her beau And she really laid a beating, In her words, "Upon that ho" Lucy, never did leave town But she let on that she did For at high school graduation She was pregnant with her kid Her boy was born at Christmas She did not even tell his dad He was off to find his fortune And she sometimes wished she had But, she made up tales to tell her son Of who his father was But, she never told the truth to him And that was her son's loss She worked around the village Never really getting out She did her best for her son Jamie There never was a doubt She loved this boy with all her heart And so she chose to stay She'd sacrifice her future And she'd dream of "just what may" have happened to her if she left If he had not been born But, to her, a life with out him Made her feel sad, forlorn Twenty years past by so fast The Aces plans were set Each one had hoped the other Would not dare to forget Allthough good friends in high school They'd never kept in touch They went different directions Their new lives, well....were their crutch Cindy was the first to show So, she stayed outside to smoke When a voice came from behind her And she knew just who had spoke Lucy, grabbed her arm And then she hugged her really tight At least two of the four Aces had remembered, got it right They went inside to grab a seat And Jill came in behind And over by the bar was where Andi, they would find They all dressed up and wore big hats And prom dresses as a lark And they sat and told their stories Of their lives till after dark They vowed that they would stay in touch And that they would converse They all agreed they'd talk this time And nothing could be worse Than twenty years of silence Between friends like the Four Aces Even though they lived such different lives They missed each other's faces Another pact was signed this night But this one for five years To meet again for tea and cakes And they signed it through their tears Cindy left to catch her flight and Andi left as well Then Jill got up and hugged Lucy And then she bade farewell This left Lucy all alone At the table all alone When a gentleman came over And he sat down with a groan "Your party was successful" Lucy smiled at his words He was the tea house owner A collector of rare birds She thanked him for the party It was one she could not miss And on her way out past him She gave him a light kiss For not only did the tea room Belong to this kind man He was also her employer For, 'twas his kitchen that she ran You see, now it's been twenty years Since they went to lead their lives Some becoming so successful Some becoming moms and wives But Lucy, never left this burg She raised her son alone And she'd worked at this small tea house It was her second home She did not have the money To come in as a guest But her boss, was a sweetheart And he'd made this night the best Tomorrow she'd be back at work Making meals for those who came To the "Flavored leaves of Green" and she'd be Lucy, once again..
