IMPRESSIONS by LOUISE A. JOHNSON

First Line: A FLIGHT OF FANCY, HEEDING NEITHER TIME NOR SPACE
Last Line: WE MAY FORGET, BUT LIFE IS NEVERMORE THE SAME.
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP;
A flight of fancy, heeding neither time nor space,
And music holding one enraptured in some place
Enthrall. The daily view made beautiful by snow,
New faces in our gallery of friends, the blow
Of undeserved rebuff, or news from lands afar
Are sometimes circumstances in a day that mar
Or, passing, make for us a lasting joy or shame.
We may forget, but life is nevermore the same.
