a Friend a Day Makes a Floral Bouquet

In the cool of the day,

  When the sun fades away.

You gather your friends,

  To enjoy the day.

When the cool finall settels the heat,

  Now the shadows begin to play.

It is time to put your troubles to rest,

  And let them just float away.

 

Give yourself a break,

  And enjoy the rest of the day.

Life needs to be enjoyed,

  For all you give, you must also take.

You have a need to make a friend,

  The need of companions along the way.

This is how you make your memories,

  From all your yesterdays.

 

The gifts of love are treasured gifts,

  The ones you gathere from your days.

Friends like this bring life in each day,

  The need to nurture it everyday.

Friends are like beautiful floral bouquet,

  So treasure each friend you collect.

The more friends you make, the better the days,

  The bigger and prettier the bouquet.

    I can feel the love from your heart within these words. It is good to be in direct fellowship with the world's people. To me, it hasn't ever really mattered what your skin tones, gender, or appearence is... My kids used to ask; "mommy, why do you talk to everybody?" That's what I thought of when I read into your poem.

    There are a few typos but the sentiments are sgtrong and vibrantly written. Beautiful!

    Thank you for this entry and I wish you the best.


    Always ♥
