Like An Angel

Whenever I felt depressed, you were there, you're the one who'd get me out of my funk. And proving that life has much more to share you bought me my first beer, and we got drunk. When the world weighed heavily on my heart, you'd convince me to try a new approach. And when all my plans seemed to fall apart, you'd encourage me like a caring coach. When everyone else turned their backs on me, I always knew that I could count on you. And even though we'd sometimes disagree, you never walked away; you stuck like glue. I couldn't have hoped for a more faithful friend, for, like an Angel, you are a Godsend.

You are very lucky to have such a soul in your life. Wonderful poem. As regards to your poetry contest...what do you mean by a 'neat' rhyme. Have a good day my friend.

This is very beautiful Emile. I have a precious friend like this too. I just saw you have a new book published "A Match In The Dark". Congratulations! I just bought a copy. I will spread the word to PFT members Emile. You should let me know when you have great poetry news like this. I don't have time to read the blogs here, if you posted about your book at Soup. I am sure your poem will be a top winner. xxoo

Hi Emile: A very touching poem. Many folks go through life with a friend that encourages them when they are down in the dumps and I could feel and relate with you. Good luck in the contest. I did win a contest but no one commented but the author of the contest (ha ha)
