To My Special Ps Friends

As the last chime of midnight brings in a new year I think of my son Oh I wish he was here But I just want to say to my special PS friends As a new year begins and another year ends I thank you all so much For your love was like a gentle touch From all corners of the globe like a flashing synchronized strobe Daily I received so many kindly words of comfort To hold me up when I fell apart devastated with a broken heart My friends I’m eternally grateful So I send you my love and my thanks To my special PS friends I wish a Happy New Year and the biggest ever thank you to you all for being here Written 1st January 2020 Contest A BRIAN STRAND VERSE FREED Sponsor Brian Strand N/A

Dear Ann, I couldn't agree with you more about how important our community of friends is here at PS. Seems like you've been given more than your fair share of adversities. Hugs, Line xx

This last few months have been heartbreaking and the support I have received from so many special friends, yourself included, has been overwhelming and really helped me. I do not know what I would have done without my special PS friends. Thank you. With kindest thoughts Ann xx

I was an early childhood teacher for thirty ears. I watched with sadness but not devoid of hope for those little ones who struggled to make friends, but it only gets harder the longer one delays taking the first steps in forming friendships to last the years. I visit a friend once a week and we pig out on chocolate and I read my latest poem while drinking coffee that is occasionally fortified. Best regards David in NZ

Many thanks for your visit David and a happy New Year to you. The thought of piggy out on chocolate and reading poetry - well what more does one need, hahaha... Good to meet you my friend. With kindest thoughts Ann xx
