'A Friend's Find' as only 'Friends Find'


I wrote this one a while ago. Raza's post compelled me to put it up; it is a tribute to friends who find...


Finding Me

Fearful and feared
forward I fared.
Amid amicable acquaintances
feeling fashionably friendless.

and then…
a hug, a joyful cry
and tears that were endless.

The mega miles of distance
had long lost their credence;
My friend had I found…
or perhaps he did find me!

In love or not, it is a lovely poem.

There are all kinds of love. Love of a good friend is one.

I love the "sound" of words and especially enjoyed reading this poem aloud.

Yes it is. I've been trying for years to find a very dear friend that I lost touch with many years ago. She seems to be lost forever and it breaks my heart.
