no matter how many times i say it, i still feel lucky to call a.j.b. my friend.

i’ve only known you for two years, but it feels more like a lifetime –

distilled into our near-daily exchanges of messages and calls and letters and cards.

and music, always music.

thank you for being a friend without limits or judgments.

we are separated by distance, but you are closer than you know.

i thank you for this most amazing day,

for the leaping greenly spirits of trees,

and for the blue dream of sky

and for everything which is natural,

which is infinite,

which is yes.

(e.e. cummings)
