7 more days
The friends will finally meet
All in a frame,
Worked into a frenzy
An excitement, none can beat
The chance to add that fiery brand
Long cherished and dear
The odyssey is the enlivener
Game for the fun filled year
A heavy billowed heart,
Calling family a bye
The cheerful greet, The sweet embrace
Repairs the melancholy
Crafts the relationship pie
Hand in Hand, we will march
And in chorus we will sing
The pledge to back each is the totempole
Apprehensions get a ding
A deal to keep the flame alive
To walk the sinuous wire
Few bottlenecks might exist
But we will wade through the mire
The end beckons,
And we cruise on
The resplendent orange flame bombards the sky
Signalling a new dawn....
