Sweet Friend O Mine

Hugs embracing clouds 
shades from the darkest grey to silver
floating within Heavenly skies 
with white patches toning grey 
I look across the mountains sweeping inside 
yearning in such sadness 
burning deep grief sweetly sings
 
Just missing my best friend
as the rain begins falling 
sharing deeply natures spirit
Whispering souls through the trees
then the seagulls lament
floating across silently a soft lukewarm breeze
touching across waters

Looking down the valley 
light painting through clouds 
silver beams moving gracefully 
Dancing under each branch I pull lately
The willow just weeps 

So lost I am without you love
passing you one warm blessing 
filled with happiness in a smile 
to my best friend  
really miss sharing with you

I know the feeling , had a very dear friend die recently. Leaves a gaping hole in ones heart. Your poem echoes that reality and paints it so very well. A super 7 from me my friend.

Lovely, absence (or is it abstinence?) makes the heart grow fonder.

When we are missing a dear friend it feels like there are always gray clouds hovering over us. But, I hope that the sun will shine down on you very soon.... This poem was so moving and so beautifully expressed. Very nicely done, Liam!
