Beyond the Rainbow's End

When puppy love nipped at our heels How we had fun when luv was young We were yet to know just how love feels How much it would hurt when heartache stung Years passed by, we went our ways Then I met her not long ago We reminisced on bygone days Spoke of life, and things, you know We said goodbye with warm embrace With longing looks as old friends do Some other time some other place We'd shoot the breeze, dinner, a brew? There's a pot of gold in an old friend Which you'll find beyond the rainbow's end 3-17-19

I love this, the feel is very personal to me because I've experienced this many times, and you delivered its depths in crisp lines of simplicity that I know weren't simple at all, but talent at work. I really enjoyed this poem. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

"There's a pot of gold in an old friend" :) I like that thought very much. We may not know why, but others grace our lives for a reason. This is beautiful and tender. ~ Brandy

You have described the best of friendship is a lovely manner; that I believe will find its way into the "winner's circle" Joseph. Well done indeed!
