To Arild

To Arild my brother across the sea.. You have my back and are the eyes when I can't see.. Oceans and sky's of time separate a friendship found in rhyme.. But a meer word joins the road we take where two hands reach out and shake.. You've given me trust but I still waiting for that long awaited cold beer and steak..

I remember flirting, before dating and way before marriage, children and hot flashes.

Shame on you PD for turning this innocent gesture of friendship into something more lol. Wow I guess now I will have jealous wives n husbands sending me hate mail lol. Man , women, boy or girl, one look at Arild you have to hug him.
