Mama Bear Poet Free verse

Friend

Be my friend
Walk with me when I am walking
Sit with me when I am sitting
Hug me when I need a hug
Talk with me when I need someone to talk with

Ignore me when I am angry
Hold me when I am crying
Be there through my sorrows
Help me carry the load when I am struggling

Be there when I need someone
Help me move on with my life
Be the one person who never judges me
Show me how to be a better person

Most of all love me for who I am
With all my faults
Also the good parts as well
Just be the person you are
My beloved
My friend

Mama Bear January 2, 2014 at 5:24 PM I thank you for all the kind words. You are nice to an amateur poet and I appreciate it. This is probably my only contribution to the soup. Richard has all the family talent and I am extreamly proud to call him my son.The poem was written for two wonderful friends for whom I could never express all my feelings for.I am truly blessed with great friends and a phenomenal family. Thanks to all of you, Mama Bear.

Robert Pettit January 2, 2014 at 4:36 PM Hello and welcome to the site. There are many friendly and helpful people here, and I know you will enjoy your time. Just a couple of suggestions to improve this piece: In the last line of your first verse, try replacing "to talk to" with "for conversation". It is improper grammar to end any sentence with a preposition. Also, what is "yhth" in the last line of your second verse? Do you mean either "my" or "the"? Other than that, this is a pleasant read.

Eileen Manassian January 2, 2014 at 4:24 PM ;-).......You might get hooked, my dear....We all are. You did write from your heart and that's what poetry is all about. :-) As for you son....Yes...you have every right to be proud. He is an amazing poet...
