One Week To Do As You Please

O n the first day, I would jump on a plane N ot to some E xotic destination but to a friend W hose life have been turned upside down by cancer E ven just to sit in his company E njoy the madness, the laughter of our amity K indred spirits, is what we are T wine together by some special kind of love O verly protective he will always be D onning the cape of my personal hero O ptimistic and feisty A s days goes on we would talk, plot and S cheme Y esterday’s fears a distant memory O ur friendship might have changed U ntimely it might seem P rojected and grown, new L ease on life is all it needs E ven if I have to drive a thousand miles A nd remain quiet S ometimes in life E ven that fulfills dreams 2nd place ONE WEEK TO DO AS YOU PLEASE CONTEST Sponsored by: CAROL BROWN

Brilliant, Lovely, perfect yet sad. What was wrong with the other poem? I dare you to give it a bad rating and reason why
