The Joy of Friendship

THE JOY OF FRIENDSHIP

A sweet young lady on Soup
Will not let your spirit droop
She's thoughtful and nice
And gives great advice
So I keep her in the loop

She monitors what I write
To make sure I get it right
Angel in disguise
One who is so wise
With a beauty oh so bright

We never have met before
I cherish her all the more
And maybe one day
I hope I can say
This angel came through my door

 If that never comes to pass
Our friendship will always last
Though she must remain
An unannounced name
Her friendship is unsurpassed

Yes, Cassandra, it is great to have friends --- especially friends like you on Soup who appreciate other people just as I do. Folks in Dublin, Georgia are just that way!!

This could pertain to so many, I think it is terrific to not fully know. Well done!

I wrote it 'generically' to protect the identity and integrity of the person for whom it was written. I certainly agree with you --- and, guess what? It could be you!!

Nice tribute... You know, I think that many of us guys have found someone like this on the Soup... Interesting... May it stay platonic though... Really! Best wishes, Gershon
