Best Family Friend Poems

Meet me there ...
Be it rain or shine,
Since I like both
Any weather is fine

Find me there ...
With those already met,
To mingle there ...
With ones I haven't yet

In a good place where 
We can laugh and smile,
And talk to the ones
Not seen in awhile 

I'll be...

Clearly, my cat loves 
Sound of her claws on
The floor, click-clicking;
Scratch-click-scurry-click;
Going on all night.

Except for when
She’s manicured
Her needle-like
Claws, her great pride.

Her whetstones,
Furniture
And carpets.

Outside
She’ll need

claws....

Friendships come and friendships go
Some may fail, some may grow
But some are cherished from the start
But honesty and loyalty has to come from the heart
Friends are forever and forever are friends
They are thick and thin till the end
A true friend comes along only once in...

Laying my head back, eyes closing,
reminiscing, the years falling away into decades ago
to the 1950s at my grandparents' grand home
for Christmas.

It was a gracious dining room.
Noontime sun streaming in.
Chair rail with deep red wallpaper, white trim.
Decorating the lace clothed "Big Table"
was a tallish 1870s porcelain...

I spent a day with you,
gazing into your 
sad green eyes—

I could see that 
you were placated 
with the thoughts 
of death—with 
being without—
with being 
unheard.

I am afraid 
of entering that 
void alone too—
but we all must
and will.

But I 
sit near you and listen
because I...

You have caused a world of pain,
making me feel like you had me by a chain.
My life and spirit you did drain,
I cried like a heavy rain.

 
Field of forgiveness is an art,
one needs to make a new start.
It comes from a loving heart,
when one...

JUST REMEMBER

  If ever you feel lonely or down,
 
  And your not sure what to,

  Close your eyes and take a deep breath,

  Remember a very happy, special day,

  When things were good for you,

  Remember who you...

 Colourful fairy lights are glittering 
There’s a feeling of magic in the air 
Tonight we’re having a garden party
All friends and family are to be there.

Food’s cooking outside on the barbecue 
Glasses out and wine ready to pour
And the weather is pleasantly balmy 
Who...

Cradle your love gently in caring hands
Tenderly as velvety fine grained-sands
Be the rainbow in their showery days
Today tomorrow forever always.

Love graceful as pirouetting snowflakes
Enfold with warmth of a loving embrace
The life changing gift tied up with heart strings
Jewels in the crown that only love brings.

Hold...

A baby bird fell from a tree
Right in front of mini-me,
He tried to fly but every lift
He fell back down and ran quite swift.

The mother of the baby bird
Fed it’s beak upon the earth,
Guiding it back up the tree
Then there was another three…

Birds…

The baby bird...

Someone on whom you could always depend

There to pick us up if we should fall...

My fondest wish this Christmas
Is for all who read this poem
To believe in Santa Clause again
And truly get to know him.

He’s not just a childhood dream
He’s a feeling in your heart
A show of love for all mankind
Of which we play a part

So be a child...

Over the meadow and through the woods
my sweet li'l grandma's got the goods!
But Daddy says I'll have to wait
until that certain December date.

Maybe I'll spot Santa's sleigh
somewhere near the Milky Way
being led by Rudolph's nose
so bright and shiny that it glows.

These were my thoughts as...
