Poem
Cindy By Franklin Price 03/04/2022 When I first met you Cindy, you were another person's spouse You became a friend to Barb and me, were always welcome in our house. People always stopped and stared, your beauty was in bloom You were then, a trophy wife, when you walked into the room. We all became the best of friends, rode Harleys everywhere Whenever someone saw us, all the rest of us were there You and Barb became the best of friends, went in business together Through thick and thin you persevered, through clear and stormy weather You left the marriage you were in, and you moved on to another Searching for some satisfaction with a younger biker brother. I'm thinking that the sex was good. You married him. What for? Though your looks were of perfection, had love to give and so much more. Barbara saw that more within you, your intelligence came through. You were more than just an object, you had more in life to do You were more than just a play thing, Barb had made you realize, The work, and love and friendship, had really opened up your eyes. All our lives were changing, Barb's and mine had turned about. Billy's and her heads were banging and I had to get her out. We moved to North Carolina, where it took her several years To come to grips, and stabilize, and dry up most her tears. We were saddened by departing, leaving everyone behind But if we did not do it, she would have lost her freaking mind You took over all the business, and you really made us proud You are more than just an object, you're a standout in the crowd. You've divorced your biker buddy, and took back your maiden name, Still printing out “Checks on Demand”. You are changing up your game. Barbara has passed away, all her pain on earth is through I'm still here and cheering, for some joy and peace for you. I would love to be a part of that, as we travel on through life You have lost your best friend Barbara, who was my own best friend and wife. We both have friends and family who will help us move along I would like us to be more than that. Does that make my liking wrong? You make my heart beat faster when I call you on the phone To hear your voice assures me that I'll never be alone Her love brings us together. She's so much of who we are. She's still resides within us, she'll always be our shining star.
