I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

Friendship...

Means so much to me

Just like a home

Which is secure.

No bolts to jolt

No locks to crack

Just a smile

Or tear

Of happiness.

Joyous times

Which we share

Like the summer we traveled

To our favorite beach

To find the water

Was no longer there.

Sorrowful times

We share our tears

Like the time

My child left

Before his years.

Friendship...

It treasures within the heart

Worth more than gold

It blooms deeper

And longer lasting

Within all seasons.
