A gang of five became six on the wedding day of Rachel The rugged charm and love of food belongs to Joey The scrappy attitude and chef’s hat, Monica Sarcasm and dry as bone humor to Chandler The guitar strums at the hands of Phoebe And the PhD in paleontology proudly credited by Ross

Ten years is a while, filled with the sound of Ross Who loved no one like he loved Rachel The way Mike loved Phoebe And the way acting was loved by Joey Monica loved so much everything that was Chandler And Chandler loved everything that was Monica

But first they all saw heartbreak, Richard and Monica All three (failed) marriages to Ross The lovely and nasally Janice to Chandler Paolo, among others, all to Rachel A new woman per moment saw Joey And a long separation endured Phoebe

Each sport trademarks, Smelly Cat was Phoebe’s Compulsiveness, fueled the drive in Monica Hugsy the penguin possessed by Joey A young son and a few dinosaurs for Ross The fashion industry that supported Rachel And the vagueness of employment that was Chandler

A nation and beyond watched as they grew older, even Chandler As one brought a set of selfless children, Phoebe And Emma was welcomed unexpectedly by Rachel Eventually, through another, as did Monica Almost always with Ben was Ross And one found it in him to let go, Joey

The curtain closed and fond memories of “Paper, snow, a ghost!” screamed by Joey Echoed, along with insufferable puns dropped by Chandler “PIVOT” resounded in the ears by the voice of Ross Along with the shrill street intimidation, owned only by Phoebe And a defiant “I know!” left by Monica Or a final “I got off the plane” thanks to Rachel

They left their keys one by one Joey, then Phoebe Wedding bands on their fingers, Chandler, then Monica Bidding farewell to the purple colored house of memories, Ross, then Rachel
