313. 40 years later….

trading secrets
sharing concerns and ideas
laughing and laughing
*
tolerating faults
faithful to their own needs
making things right 
*
40 years later 
satisfied and happy, too
el & ellie 
*
el & ellie 
in their blue-and-white pj’s
beaming and beaming



 this is a poem about el & ellie phant.  this is more than a poem about el & ellie.  think about it….
