Friendship

FRIENDSHIP


My friend,
My soul’s double 
My being’s companion
My heart’s beat
My mind’s thought

Your fears 
I share 
And you
My hopes
Alone aren’t we
As next to each-other
Proudly we stand
Against all odds
Twin towers of
Trust
Supporting one another, 
Asking for nothing 
Offering everything,
As we vigilantly
Guard
Our future’s
Undivided
PATH!

Wonderful tribute for those we lost that day when the Twin Towers went down 9/11

Lovely poem... only one comment! I think you meant "friend" and not "fiend" in the first line! LOL In my haste, I have often made that mistake! Otherwise, wonderful write... cheers, Jack

Thank you Jack! Of course I ment friend, otherwise the title would have been FIENDSHIP! Ha-ha! I truly appreciate your correction!

Friendship is the spice of life! Just a note: should the last couple of lines read...as we vigilantly guard since vigilantly is an adverb? Just wondering...thanks for being my friend! :) Ese kalos philos gia mena...elpiza gia panta that ese konta mou! :) Philakia!

Thank you for the correction. Originally I had written: "As we vigilantly are guarding" but I forgot are. Your indication is simpler and more correct. THank you! Eissai pragmatiki fili ke sagapo! Se parakalo stile mou tin electroniki sou diefthinsi! Filakia
