Milo and Me.. . Part 2

Milo and Me raised by Mom and Dad, in that small mountain town- A little more than 66 miles from Albany. Dad and Mom faithfully provided their best for Milo and Me. Yes-it would have been better if we had been sustained- by some rich family. Most things that happened on that street have NEVER been spoken of- by Milo and Me. To painful, to dreadful and DARK, even for the Spirituous heart. I guess we made an unspoken pact, between Milo and Me, to- Never, Reveal what took place on that mystifying,Non-illuminated, Murky Street. You see for Milo and Me--we always knew of HIS Devine Majesty. Tales have been told and fabrication declared- to even the most paramount. But--for Me and Milo- we always knew of GODS providence. We knew- that someday, HE would overtake the misery- that happened about 66 miles from Albany-on that Street. For Milo, he went into some Rehab--you see? Somewhere Near Albany. For Me, got married a second time to a wife-- and had a family. I guess this is where Milo and Me, took different paths into life- or it seemed. I definitely miss Milo and those GLORY days of our youth- all the beer and reefer parties, can’t you see? On an old abandon meadow and STREET called Solders Field-- is where we partied. Only GOD and the few that were there in those days would know what Milo and ME did on--THAT STREET! Tales have been told and fabrication declared--But--I will leave it to that. This re-memorable time I will never forget. I lasted a short moment-- maybe a week at best. Then it came to pass for Milo and Me, to part life’s path- with seemed repeatedly. For Me and my family, we stayed and lived in that Historic Town-just about 55 miles from Albany. So-- once again- let Me take you to the end of this story. We will travel by a make-believe time machine. Close your eyes- Close your eyes- so you can’t see. Fast forward we go to the year 2010- now you may see! But-- for Me still there-just 55 miles from Albany. I have most assuredly miss Milo, after all, it’s been ten years- can’t you see? I miss him as one of our family, even though he marched so far away- into some foreign state. Milo, Milo--- wherever you are, I will always remember you- -just as you were. By :REV, Dr. MEW/WEM/EMW
