Thanks Donald

How do we touch a person we do not know? By being ourselves and letting feelings show. Some silently observe to see who we are. Pictures can be clearer standing from afar A potential friend who has made himself known With a gift of words a special kindness shown So I thank you Donald you have made my day My gift back to you I express it this way Your hand held out in friendship I now accept As a fellow poet you have my respect I have also read your words your heart is true I look forward to learning more about you. Thanks for the dedication Donald you surprised me.

Thank you Richard, it's always nice to have good friends. We may not know each other well by having get togethers or hangng out, but we know each other in our works. We all know pain and happiness, but it's a wonderful thing to share words with each other which give us a deeper appreciation. Thank you for the dedication sir.

Either way you prefer. Don was mostly my dad though, but he is no longer with us.

Call me Rick. Sir is a bit to formal for friends. Thanks again for making my day Donald. Do you prefer Don or Donald?
