My Best Friend

My best friend can't speak She can't sing, she can't shriek. But she can listen for hours, Almost like a special power. She hears my laughter, When I share my banter. But when I need to cry, She’s always nearby. She runs and plays- She could for days. My best friend likes to sleep, On my bed, by my feet. Whenever I call, She comes running with her ball. She doesn't judge- Or hold a grudge. Whenever I’m feeling lonely, I want her company only. She knows my voice, I am her first choice. Her smile brings me joy. Our friendship is one no one can destroy. I love her more and more each day- And those feelings will never go away. She is my best friend- And I will love her until the end.

Erin, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@

Thank you so much for the encouraging words! To be completely honest I wrote this for an English assignment but I'm feeling such a sense of community already and it's very inspiring. I look forward to writing more and hearing your comments. I looked at some of your work and I'm in love with your style! Thanks again for being my poet friend :)
