Friendships I Hold So Dear

What would we do without friendships It'd sure be a lonely existence Life would have no meaning, no purpose No one to brag to for instance To brag about all our many successes To talk to when things go wrong A shoulder to cry on every once in a while We don't always sing happy songs It's really quite normal and actually healthy These feelings of angst and despair It wouldn't be normal if we're always upbeat So it's good to be able to share Why do we need these really close friends Kind of obvious wouldn't you think No one's a solitary ship on the ocean Need friends to help in a wink That's why this site is so important to me The friendships I've made through the years Are hard to replace, this unique li'l group Your friendships I hold very dear

Beautifully written dear Jack. You have such a wonderful way with words. Your rhymes just flow so naturally. I've never been a rhyming person...tried a few but they are always so wonky and awkward. I like the subject matter here too. What would we do without friendship? Always, Laura
