My Dearest Friends

The Friends I hold so dear, are the friends so far away I've never seen so clear, then on this Dismal day When life gets in a mottle, and reality's sublime I reach out to those Friends Those dearest friends of mine I sometimes feel a presence , of a shadow over me A restlessness of tides in the cosmos of the sea And when the loneness is near, and I no longer can abide I reach out to my friends Those dearest friends of mine I have never seen their faces, I have never heard their voice But something by their nature, makes me make them friends of choice And if by chance we meet, by luck or by design My only expectations is They are Dearest Friends of mine By JTCurtis

I've looked around for a place to lie my poem down, and this by far is the best and what makes it that way---it's people like you.

Jerry, Sometimes we seek new friends in our times of need. I joined this site when my father passed and I need a release. Ironically, I ended up making many wonderful friends here and have met seven of them. I'm glad you are finding companionship here. It is a blessing! Love, carolyn
