Let’s Meet Again Next Week or Next Life
Cf. Shakespeare, Sonnet 32
To ask to be remember’ed is good
Both for the humble asker and for the asked -
For both will pause to consider mortality
And both will pause to enjoy the happy now
We understand this world will pass away
That all created things must collapse and die
And yet we are promised them back again
And each other too, in saecula saeculorum
Then, yes, please, do remember me, if you would -
To ask to be remember’ed is good
