Notes About The Poem

Friends

Friends

We met a while back. 
You made me laugh. 
It had been a long time, 
since I had done that. 

You like tea and not coffee. 
You like toast, no bagel.
You smile when I say "cheese".
Hugs, hugs, hugs.

You never tell me I stink.
You never tell me, I am too loud.
You never say I embarrass you.
You. All, of you!

Where have you been?
Why were you lost?
I have found you?
No.
God knew I needed…
You.

oh how poignant this one is. I really like the feeling expressed here. thanks so much for seeing my poems recently. I do not know what is going on at Soup lately but people are seeming very stingy with comments!! I hope we can all get more participation going on here!!

I love to read and share all that I can. Sleep is such a needy thing indeed... Thank you so kindly for the comment...roses and butterflies...in green and blue... I love your poems. I read many, from all the poets. They are uplifting and wild at times. The people here have been so kind... Hugs. Ann
