Toast to Old and Worthy Friends

Shadows of my past Through thick and thin and new You’ve not deserted me And I have clung to you. Friends are gifts to love And cherish through the years To often share our laughter And sometimes share our tears A Merry Christmas now And joys throughout the year With halcyon days and starlit nights And peace and love and cheer.

—Deane A. Cox, Mutual 4
