Sometimes, it's hard to understand, Why people always come and go; Sometimes, their sweet goodbyes are more painful, Especially if you love them so. Along this winding road of life, Sometimes we need to know, When goodbyes broke our heart and made us cry, Prove that in ourselves, we can always be true. Let not heartbreak be the end, Remember that in real friendship has no limit; As long as in our heart, good memories linger, In us, good friends will likely be here forever. Looking back the times when I met a friend, Who was so sweet, loving, faithful and true; Seemed as Jesus came personally in my life, To stay, take good care of me and love me so. You and I really need to know, That in friendship, two people both grow; Truly, good and loyal friends make us strong, They are always there to lean on. Don't ever forget these words, dear friend Only in prayer, God keeps us together; In this world, we do meet friends Some like us much, some are nice and some aren't, Most importantly, we grow and learn from them. Of all the things in this world, Bird's passage is by which meeting friends is most compared; A person whom we've felt the true friendship, In our heart he will forever remain, Although, you say goodbye or thank you to him, Still, friendship isn't the end. Note: A goodbye message to my dear best friend, Sally De Ocampo who left for U.S.. Her initials appear on each stanza. She requested this poem from me on her birthday.

Leonora, I took me a long time to understand, why people have to come and go. You know what I like about you, you are a true person, and being true to yourself is what you do best. You are a sweet friend, I bet Rosalie, misses you. is there an up date poem for her return... your poem and friendship are excellent. always~ PD

A poem written dedicated to my dearest best friend who left abroad. We treated each other as real sisters, too. Her name is found on the initial letter of every stanza and the remaining two stanzas are her two-word surname.
