Lin Lane Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Friendships

With the wisdom in my heart I must agree
For at times it knows what I cannot see.
People in my life may come and go,
But only a few I want to get to know.

Sincerity is the most admirable trait.
That's my thought; not open to debate.

In a woman, it's apparent in her every word.
In her writing, her love and kindness is heard.
She shows signs of being humble and meek,
She's the kind of friend I will always seek.

In a man, there are qualities I admire and embrace.
Vestiges perceived though I've not seen a face.
A touch of Robin Hood, Braveheart, Sir Galahad.
I'd be a loyal friend of this combination of a lad.

If you find such a person it quite likely is a sign
that such people can be found, even if it's online.
