remembering shari


a long time ago (yesterday, when i was young), when i was seventeen (it was a very good year, mostly amazing, actually), i was in love with being in love (and candora would surely understand, even if shirley doesn't) and was given the unique opportunity to truly share being in love with two people who were, at the time, deeply in love with me (and they were best friends, no less... we won't get into the details because, after all, this is a family site... or is this just a distraction from the emo of it all?)...

fuck what?... well, being a gentleman (and a sometimes clever writer), i shall respect their privacy (and titillate your imagination) by simply saying passions abounded all arounded and resounded and astounded and confounded and rebounded and too bad mounted doesn't rhyme with the other words... suffice to say, the police were never called, but we did have fireworks on many nights in that wild and wonderful year together...

what brings this memory up (memory, yes, memory) at this moment, you might ask... well, today is the date of the birthday of one of those two magic moment (so different and so new) girls from a long time ago (when i was seventeen and learned the truth)... so i wish i could reach out and show her how much she meant to me and still means to me as a muse, a memory, an inspiration... and i wish i could thank her for being born... so much of the creative process in me has roots in those times... in her... maybe, somehow someday, she'll stumble across these words and know...

we were still too young to know
the full power of love
we were still too innocent
to call it right or wrong
we were still too inexperienced
to know just what to do
but we were still too much in love
to just be me and you
we were two plus one
we were me and you and you

and the world was not accepting
condemnation and scorn
they demanded a choice
and everything was torn
acceptance from our friends
divide, conquer, and mourn
but all these years later, shari,
i am so glad you were born

happy birthday
you still mean so much to me
more than a feeling
more than just a memory
you are inspiration
and i hope you are happy
today and every day
happy birthday

i love you shari

we interrupt these seemingly mindless dots for a word from (or at least about our sponsor (hmmm, sponsor?... what's the opposite of sponsor?)... anyway, now, as ado-less as possible, the word for you or andrew)...

you know that box to the right on the dland entry page called recent public entries?... what do the asterisks mean?... and the bold?...
