Photograph

The three of us were all in shorts
that gorgeous day in June.
We had a little radio
To play our favorite tunes.

Rachel had her leather jacket,
me a halter top.
But Cheryl outdid both of us
with legs that went non-stop.

It’s been forty years since that snapshot,
since I saw those friends of mine.
But in my heart, it’s yesterday
for friendship transcends time.
