Ingredients In a Friend

~Ingredients in a Friend~

Aspiring to be great
Believing in God
Compassionate to the core 
Determined to see things through
Enduring to the end
Forgiving....always
Grateful for each minute
Humorous with joyous laughter
Idealistic you bet
Just to the deserving
Kind to animals
Loving to humanity
Mature beyond their years
Noble as royalty
Outgoing and fun
Patient to the core
Realistic and sees truth
Trustworthy with secrets
Vital to all
Warm and understanding
Xenial*with an open door
Young at Heart
Zestful and on the move

* Xenial means hospitable.
     Word of Greek origin.

Robert Johnson Date: 7/23/2019 4:45:00 PM So glad I read this one Panagiota. You covered each letter with a true sense of humanity and love. <3 Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 7/23/2019 5:48:00 PM Glad you liked it. I have been here 4 months and wriiten 475 poems. But have slowed down in the past month. I want to enjoy it here not make it an endurance test. What for? That's nuts. Panagiota thank you Leslie.

Tom Cunningham Date: 7/20/2019 12:42:00 AM Quite a list Panagiota, you summed it up well. Tom Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 7/20/2019 1:09:00 PM I realize, there are even, more than listed! Glad you liked it Tom. Panagiota

Andrea Dietrich Date: 7/19/2019 4:26:00 PM All that and more, Panagiota. gosh, I think you did two forms here, perhaps this is ABC as well as an acrostic! Great lines on friendship.

As I said to you before, I am a total dummy and may label all poems as I dont knows in future. I begin to doubt if I am a poet at all. Doubting poet-)). Panagiota

Harry Horsman Date: 7/19/2019 7:52:00 AM It does not get much better than this... Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 7/19/2019 11:02:00 AM Wow, Harry...thank you! Panagiota

Quoth Theraven Date: 7/18/2019 10:35:00 PM Panagiota, Very nice Acrostic style poem. Can you put a picture of something on your avatar? I put my sweet pup's pick as mine. -Richard Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 7/19/2019 3:32:00 AM I am not a member, Richard, but this thought does cross my mind daily! I guess I wonder.. Does it have to be a certain size or what? I won't use images with poems. I prefer them naked, so to speak-)) thanks! Nobody ever asked. This is my 472 poem. I cannot believe it,Panagiota.

David Mchattie Date: 7/18/2019 7:19:00 PM Wow. That'a quite a list. But when dealing with a friend... you should aim high. Have a great day my friend. Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 7/19/2019 3:24:00 AM I missed other qualities, like honesty and integrity! I actually find all these qualities in my daughter, who I do consider a friend. There are more not listed, I could expand this list. This may be a work in progress. Panagiota
