Blessed By a Poet

Always a friend, come rain or shine.
Is this special poet of mine!
He lifts me up, when I am down.
I think he is uniquely royal and deserves 
a crown!

No wonder my poem to him is in the anthology!
He's a master at kindness to humanity!

Never blowing his own horn,
Nor treating another poet with disdain, nor fill any 
heart with discord.

Thank you for being in my life to greatly learn.
That to support a few hearts, outdoes any desire 
for a trophy to yearn!
