Oldies

We are old, you and I, at least in the eyes of many today – but not in our hearts, or in the eyes of each other. You ignite my passions today just as much – if not more – than in those far off years when we were both just starting out and exploring one another. And now here we are on the far side of 50 and as hotly active as ever. Thank you for keeping on lighting my fires and making me soar on the thermals you create. I hope it can be as many years again in your arms and in your heart. —Licker Flicker
