Pouring Spring Water On Fertile Ground
i listen to you chatter as my teeth chatter
you keep me warm with your friendship as well as your trust
it gives my long wilted self esteem quite the thrust
knowing that you confide in me, i once again realize that i matter
now here i am in all black
in my left hand is the poem i read at your funeral
you are the only reason that i still even think of writing
now your signature knock will be no more
everynight you enter each dream i have
the love we shared is similar to a friendship rarely found on this here earth
i always lower my standards and get me a mint chocolate chip shake every third sunday
i play your favorite song by weldon irvine....Morning Sunrise....that is what your friendship meant to me
as time goes on, your influence saturates my growing maturity
i wake up to a picture of you playfully kissing the ocean
i laugh at each time people would say we made a good couple
....and that we were....a couple of good friends....and for that, i will be forever grateful....
pouring spring water on fertile ground for you with love....Dear Friend....
