Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

What Friendship Is For

Why despair
  Instead repair

Wherefore cry
  Tomorrow's nigh

In hock or shock
  Don't sweat just yet

It'll happen for you
  There's luck all over
Near the Cliffs of Dover
  Sits your four-leaf clover

If not in a Parisian Cafe
  Or down Acapulco Way
Perchance by Monterey Bay
  Face up on a California quay

Just think of me
  When your ship comes in
Of how happy I'll be
  That you lit up my grin

Gershon Wolf July 24, 2020 at 5:43 PM I'm from the 'old school:' E.g., let's see -- I've got five guests at my table and only four presents. Doors lock automatically from the inside... lol. :) gw
