Poem About My Mate Mark

Heres to the Ali G book, and here to going coast,
Heres to playing dominoes and finding purple post.

Heres to playing Uno, and heres to Bombay chips,
Heres to all the play fighting and trying to do back flips.

Id love to go back to these times, I really do I wish,
Heres to playing football and catching all those fish.

Heres to staying at my house, and heres to staying at yours,
Here to sailing in our dingy and paddling with no oars.

Heres to starting fires, and heres to the things we learn,
Heres to you braving goal even with sunburn.

Heres to having a friend, really like no other,
And heres to having someone like you, youre my 2nd brother.
