And I never see my old friends face, For life is a swift and terrible race, He knows I like him just as well, As in the days when I rang his bell. And he rang mine, we were younger then, And now we are busy, tired old men. Tired of playing a foolish game, Tired of trying to make a name. "Tomorrow" I say, "I will call on Jim" "Just to show that I'm thinking of him." But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes, And distance between us grows and grows. Around the corner!- yet miles away, "Here's a telegram sir" "Jim died today." And that's what we get and deserve in the end. Around the corner, a vanished friend.

Poetry is amazing...look at the amount of time of ones life the poet is spanning here and takes you from good things...to being busy with one's life...to a remembrance of former times and the sadness of missing out....and it was only just around the corner. This is me! Good post Catch!!! ...and two hard boiled eggs.
