Amanda - My Parted Friend On Your Birthday

We never need a special day
To bring you to our mind,
For days without a thought of you,
Are very hard to find.

We cannot send a birthday card,
Your hand we cannot touch,
But God will take our greetings
To the one we love so much

Thinking of you on your birthday,
With sadness in our hearts,
For a very special someone,
From whom we had to part

Happy Birthday Blondie
We all talk of you still,
We certainly haven't forgotten you
And I doubt we ever will

Xx Much Love xX

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Brought tears to me eyes. My daughter's name is Amanda and she lost her best friend on her son's birthday. Each year is bittersweet celebrating her son's birthday but remembering the loss of her best friend. Your poem brought all this to mind.
