~ A True Friend ~

Missing image
You have been my ray of sunshine
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

Author notes

Dedicated to my dear friend
~ WAYNE LEON LEARMOND ~

Wishing you all the best in your endevours
you have been one hell of a friend, I'm going
to miss you so much sweetie.

I love you dearly
Know you will be forever in my heart

Take care & be blessed
Darkest Love & Respect
Always Chelle xxx

    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.
    Anna.

    this poem is so great! and it makes me sad but happy at the same time! it reminds me so much of me and my wonderful friends that will be parting so soon! and also one thing-it's "realized"

    I'm glad you did this!

    He seems like a good guy. I wished that I had made a better attempt at getting to know him. I'll go say Hi! to him soon, again

    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!

    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.

    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!
