No Time Like the Old Time
By Oliver Wendell Homes
There is no time like the old time,
when you and I were young,
When the buds of April blossomed,
and the birds of spring-time sung!
The gardens brightest glories
by summer suns are nursed,
But oh, the sweet, sweet violets,
the flowers that opened first!
There is no friend like the old friend,
who has shared our morning days,
No greeting like his welcome,
no homage like his praise:
Fame is the scentless sunflower,
with gaudy crown of gold;
But friendship is the breathing rose,
with sweets in every fold.
"Old friends are best.
King James used to call for his okd shoes;
they were easiest for his feet."
John Seldon
"Freindship never forgets.
That is the wonderful thing about it."
Oscar Wilde
"Our friendship was so assured
that we could be silent
without the slightest danger of offense."
Sir Arthur Helps
