sipping martini while crunching carrot sticks,
boogie boarding the waves
singing 'stayin alive stayin alive'
'oh oh oh oh'
as each wave tried its darnest to crash us,
chilling on the sand with a book in hand,
tanned beyond recognition -
nothing could beat that feeling
a world away from our cares of the day.
While we haven't done it again
when we said we would,
you never know, we still could
20 years from today.
Can you see us on deck chairs again
thinking back to how we first met
at age 7 in Tamil class
once a week at ACS,
how we've kept in touch over the years
with ebbs and flows
as certain as the tides themselves?
That's why I know
you and I will say cheers
holding our wine steady
even as we push 70
on a beach
far away
just the two of us
again.
