One Year Ago Today

Dearest friend ‘twas on this day your darling love was called away One year ago today ~ I send you comfort on this day No words I say will never ever take your pain away ~ So know dear friend you’re in my heart I’m here for you the whole day through To give you strength To give you hugs To talk To listen To just be there I understand Your hurt Your pain As you relive that day again But you must know your love is here Where'er you go he loves you so Dearest friend please take a breath and feel his love so deep For one fine day you both shall meet your one and only ~ your love so sweet ~~~~~ Written 5th January 2022 Contest A STRAND (1046) Sponsor Brian Strand FIRST PLACE

This is a beautiful poetic gesture of friendship and exemplifies the healing power of words. " To give you hugs / To talk / To listen / To just be there" ... says so much. I'll be thinking about my moon-loving friend tonight as our beautiful full Luna rises over the horizon. Blessings and hugs ~ John
