PAUL HERTELENDY

A TOAST--- AFTER SEVERAL OTHERS

Greetings and heartfelt affection to gathered arrivals, Now welcomed with bright salutation! Your presence will radiate its harmonies, delights and profound inspiration, Fueled further by toasts with the grape of dear Bacchus and related libation. Cast out the pretense and the attitude! We revel and we celebrate with health and spirit to galactic magnitude Affording apertures, expressing our deep gratitude. With mobility comparable to schoolsful of fishes, I’m ready to run, or tackle the dishes, As, brimming with joy, I extend you the warmest regards, the kindest of tones, and the best of my wishes! ©2005 by Paul Hertelendy.
