Michelle Faulkner Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

My Friend Tammy

My friend Tammy has a merry smile
Fun, big-hearted, colorful style
We always sit and chat awhile
Her laughter can echo for miles

We're enthusiastic football fans
For our favorite team we'll take a stand
Over coffee-and, we'll share our plans
For dinner, family, pots and pans

So please excuse this silly rhyme
I just wanted to take the time
To give a shout-out to her upbeat ways
And send my thanks for cheering my days.

John Watt August 9, 2022 at 9:54 AM A sweet nod to a friend and friendship. I love the phrase "over coffee-and". Your gift is such that you can turn a "silly rhyme" into something profound and relatable. I think we all need an upbeat friend who can send us on our way with a smile. Hope you are enjoying your day ~ John Michelle Faulkner August 9, 2022 at 11:42 AM I wrote this back when I first joined poetry soup, it was one of the first new things I'd written, and she is always so friendly and encouraging, glad you liked it, hope you have a great week, John~
