Friend
Comforting familiarity
Lasting a lifetime
Yet even lifetimes end
Memories

Memories
Laughing uncontrollably
We should not
That makes it funnier

David, I appreciate your support for my Flash Poetry Challenge (8). Your poem was randomly chosen to be featured in my 'Results' blog, which is now up and running. Your line "Yet even lifetimes end memories" resonates with me. I love the second Elfchen's positive finish with "Hilarity." :-)

Freedom to laugh with a friend is fun. Just don't laugh at them.
