Line Gauthier Poet Rhyme

Losing a Friend

Through the years
Some rich some lean

Friends are few
And far between

No matter what
We have endured

Kinship and laughter
Always reassured

Losing a friend hurts
Deepest to the core

We’re always hoping
They’ll reappear at our door

M. L. Kiser February 23, 2019 at 9:35 AM They are indeed, "few and far between"; some friends end up being closer than family. It's wonderful that you remember them with a poem. Line Gauthier February 23, 2019 at 10:38 AM Thanks for your lovely visit, ML. I couldn't agree with you more.

Timothy Mcguire February 22, 2019 at 10:27 PM Wonderful! <3 reminds me of my friend. Line Gauthier February 23, 2019 at 6:41 AM It is so difficult to go through, Timothy. I understand.

Rhona Mcferran February 22, 2019 at 12:44 PM I know this feeling. I still have a hard time believing my best friend from high school is gone, and she died years ago. Line Gauthier February 22, 2019 at 2:08 PM Th hurt never disappears.
