Dearest Carolyn

You were one of the first of a very few
to welcome me here when I first joined Poetry Soup
and although I haven't really kept in touch
you're not alone, I rarely stay in touch with anyone much.
It has no reflection on you or on any of them.
I could never have asked for a more supportive and giving friend
than you, my dear friend Carolyn.
All I can say is that if I've ever offended you in any way, I do have an explanation.
It's the price you pay when you befriend someone who is prone to self alienation,
so I would hope that you not take my absence personally.
You're A Great Friend And You'll Always Mean Ever So Very Much To Me.

Dedicated to Carolyn Devonshire
With My Very Best Wishes Always
