Beef brisket

It's like this... two boats... traveling on different rivers... except they both end up in the Sea... eventually. Meanwhile...on occasion... there's brisket with horseradish... and many, many, mixed metaphors.

Yesterday I spent time

With a friend

Who encouraged me

To make leaps and bounds

In my fifties.

We shared beef brisket

With horseradish.

It seemed I should offer him

Something

Except I wasn’t sure exactly what.

I said

If there’s any way

You think

I can be helpful

Please

Please

Let me know.

He said

I will,

With that twinkle he has,

I will.
