Celebrating Just being Girls.
We
were young girls together more than four decades ago
Connected
again when Elisa invited to dinner someone she thought she didn’t know!
To
memorialize and revel in our aging gracefully
We
chose to celebrate what we thought to be tastefully.
Our
social director Bernadette made the plans and informed us
A
mountain chalet reserved for the holiday of Columbus.
Accommodations
were perfect for the weekend ahead
Except
for the staircase which Rose had to tread.
Since
we now move through life at a much slower clip
Rosie’s
trek up those steps is fine as long as she won’t trip.
As
we chat and talk over each other we find
Our
lives have had substance that as kids we couldn’t define.
Now
we are grownup, or at least claim to be
We
plan social dates that often end in giggle fests of panties peed.
So
often it’s silly simple things that cheerfully inspire
And
that is how we named this weekend, “Bras by the Fire###”.
Once
we settled in for the weekend we noticed the mantle had bottles of wine
Set
along the chimney wall lined up in a straight line.
Who
knows how the idea came to fruition
But
the bras hanging from wine bottles is now a tradition.
Our
brassiere styles in taste may change as we get older
But
the fact still remains they are over-the-shoulder-boulder-holders.
So
at least annually we gather to blather
But
most important of all we check in on each other.
