Why I Loved Cd's Poem : a Sonnet For Jack

A Sonnet for Jack It’s in those moments when I feel most torn apart That I find your email; you see what’s in my heart Each day I look forward to reading words of hope From the moment we met, you have helped me to cope Although you are far across the Atlantic “pond” I can’t imagine two friends with a stronger bond When sadness fills my heart, it’s you who makes me smile Always so witty with your remarkable style I only hope to be as good a friend to you And resurrect your spirits when you’re feeling blue Many gifts you send, but our friendship is the best I thank our Lord each day for making me feel blessed By the way you bestow joy to a lonely girl Who has found in you, sanity in this harsh world *Dedicated to my dear friend Jack Horne. Written September 1, 2014 Copyright © Carolyn Devonshire | Year Posted 2014 I guess it's pretty obvious why this one means so much to me & I have it saved on my computer. It not only demonstrates what a talented poet Carolyn was, but on a personal level, it reminds me of the bond we had & is a great comfort right now. for Andrea's contest
