- Goodbye My Friend -

- I sent you a warm summer smile with the sun
                         - But you did not receive

                         - I sent you sweet little kisses with the wind
                         - But they did not reach to you

                         - I sent you warm thoughts on a dusty country road
                         - But the thoughts was gone by the dust

                         - I sent you my tears with the waves
                         - But you could not see them

                         - I sent you my weeping heart
                         - But you did not know

                         - I sent you a hundred deep red roses
                         - But you had traveled your own way

This is so beautiful that it touches the heart. We can only do so much before we let friends go. We can reach but if they do not reach back all we can do is say we tried. Wonderful poem Anne Lise. love phyl

Good morning my dearest friend Anne Lise! And Happy, happy birthday!!! I was trying to stop by last night to post a poem for you but we'd thunder storm here so, I thought of waking up early and posting it now. I hope you'll go and read it and i hope, you'll like it as well. About your poem, it's beautifully sad and great! I hope it's only a poem. Again, have a happy happy birthday! Big big hugs to you & wish you all the best. Love lots, Leonora

This is very nice, but sad. It is always sad when you lose a friend, or when they leave. Hope it's just a poem.. Lucilla
