The Dearest of Friends

They were all finally assembled. It was a job getting them all there, many did not know the way, they just stumbled through but one way or another, all of them arrived. Even Nestler found his way eventually. Of course this doesn't change anything. Not really, it just makes it open, instead of with all the razor teeth that was there before. As one rose up from the crowd, another followed and another, till eventually all were standing up. They held up their glasses and said:-1

'To Friends!2

May we be the best we can!'3

What an atmosphere as the toast was said. All the drinks clashed as they all commended the toast. Finally they had come together, all of them, under one roof. 4

They were free to act as one and many, to act as they did before. It was a creative alliance, one formed from the day they met. It was a strange one, they both seemed to work on the same wavelength, both felt pain but it didn't matter with the other. Then it got painful, things started to collide so one ended it, severed the tie. They didn't know why at the time, they just knew it was the right thing to do. Now they see why. Now it should all be ok. May their toast live on forever.5
