Stick 300 - Jelly Bean Moment


Jelly Bean Moment in time...

three jelly beans
is what we had left
as we perched
on the edge
of the Henley-on-Klip bridge

one for you
and one for me
one for the dream man
we just decribed
and imagined made three

as we chew
we both realise
we're at the end of this era
at the end of the jumping off bridges
at the end of imaginary switches

years later in my minds' eye
i remember our determined looks
our knowing smiles
and our candid acceptance of
what the future must surely hold in store

three jelly beans I chew for you today
one for your friendship
one for your kindness
one for where-ever you are
and one for where-ever the river did and will flow
