that always chased away the rain
all your crazy jokes
always brightened up my day
You've seen me through bad times
took away my tears
brought me so much pleasure
throughout this past year
It brings me so much joy
you chose me as your friend
you've always gone that step beyond
been one on whom I can depend
We have shared so much together
weathered many storms
held each other tight
within loving distant arms
I write this little rhyme for you
with wishes true and sincere
may all your dreams be realized
throughout the coming years
I'm glad our paths have crossed
that fate brought you to me
it isn't goodbye that I say
but a warm farewell to thee

A great definition of friendship
This is what I read in this poem. You have found a dear friend you can rely on, who is always there for you and whom you wish the very best. Well done. May this friendship continue forever.

Say it isn't so, sis. The Mater of Darkness is leaving us? If this is true, he will be sorely missed. A great dedication to a great friend. Good one, sis.

Luna-midnight, You want to take a good look at yourself for you to say such things and think so bad of a friend in a second...I would say that is how you are, full of deceit, trickery and the mirage of caring...because if you were a true friend...no matter how hard it is to say goodbye you would do it and wish them well not turn on them because their leaving doesn't suit YOU! -
Aww
we all adore Wayne Leon
He is my Brother of the Dark, I will miss him so much too hun.
He has been my missing link and we have shared so much together.
A wonderful dedication

Then you are going to miss out on some truly beautiful friendships...it takes a second to make a friend and a lifetime to be one. Whether they be near or far away.
Take care. -

You are not the only one sweetie.
You take care

A VERY BEAUTIFUL PIECE, INDEED - FROM A VERY BEAUTIFUL LADY!
Many people seem to be leaving AP these days - and for whatever reason that they may have for doing so - all we need to know - is that the times we spent with them - and the words that we read from their hearts and souls - will stay and remain with us forever - in the world - and into the world that will come after and beyond!
Peace & Love!
Earl.
Say FARE-THEE-WELL but as I said earlier today in me first piece of the day NEVER SAY GOOD BYE.

hi chelle~
this is a really nice tribute to your friend.
I write this little rhyme for you
with wishes true and sincere
may all your dreams be realised
throughout the coming years
i like the rhyme approach. it gets your feelings across, leaving a comforting smile instead of tears. tears are ok, mind you! a comforting smile leaves a fond memory. well done, my friend!
