Friendship [Quotella Duet]

 

 

 A friend is always there when you need a friend the most.

Friend is a special person, not someone just being a nice host.

Is making friends difficult? No, you meet new friends each day.

One knows who are true friends; one feels this in their heart.

Who can one trust in becoming a special friend is one that

knows in their heart and soul they’ll be with you till the end.

You should love a friend that same as your friend loves you,

and cherish every moment with a friend because he or she

loves you whether or not you live very close or so far away.

You must always consider your best friend your loving spouse.

Just as your families; there’re always best friends that love you.

The best way to treat friends is to embrace them by your side.

Same goes; “True friendship is seen through the heart not through the eyes.”

Quotilla

Like a full word acrostic, the QUOTELLA begins with a quotation, which is reproduced in the first word of each line of the poem. The first two lines must be a rhyming couplet, as well as the final two lines. The middle stanza's length is determined by the number of words in the quotation; and these lines may, but do not have to rhyme. The lines of the poem should re-state imagistic-ally or imaginatively the essence of the original quotation.

I chose to include a twist that I called a "Quotella Duet" The duet comes in the final line. The last line forms a famous quote as well as the First Full Words to each line of the poem.

It's something that may be quite different from a Quotella or Double Quotella, but I hope you enjoy this piece!
Thanks.
David

    Beautiful Poem

    Your words of friendship are so true. The real friends stick by you and are there anytime just to listen or hold you hand. They don't put you down because we are not perfect. Thank you for sharing this. It was so nice to hear from you. Take care my friend. Sandy
