Small talk is invaluable, most businessmen maintain.
It's said to aid one's rise and guide horizons to expand.
But after countless mingling over drinks I must complain,
That no one I have met before remembers who I am.

A friend's success we hear by word of mouth,
Is no less very pleasant news indeed.
A happy tale transferred by any route,
Is welcome to be told and to retell.
Yet fortune heard firsthand is without doubt,
The kindest way to have such news received,
For when we are included and sought out,
The blessing then becomes our own as well.
