SAMMY KISSIN

"The other week a complete stranger shouted across the dock and asked "Do you own this boat?". I said "Yes". He said "Then you must be Sammy". He said "George, who used to fish here. He asked me to pass on a message. He wanted to say Goodbye".

The exchange was so simple. I said "Oh".

I wanted to say "Please, say bye back to George."

Our friendship, mine and George's, was one that existed on Hello's and Goodbye's, casual information tossed back and forth, day to day. And here was I, unable to float him a response. I had dropped the ball.

I'd like to say bye. This is an attempt at a reply.
