The Toast

I'd like to propose a toast
As we raise our glasses high

Here's to the beginnings
That never got around
All of the lost chances
That never did get found

To all the times you wish you'd tried
But you never did
Lets drink to the open hearts and minds
We all had as kids

Here's to the opportunities
We let blow off in the wind
Hoping that one day they will
Blow back this way again

To all of the lost lovers
That remain thankfully in the past
To those yet in our future
That hopefully will last

As our glasses are still raised high
I toast to you my friends
That we will always have what it is we have
A new beginning with no end

"clink, clink," to Mike, may God continue to bless him and may his imagination keep running away with his unique poetry!"
