FRIENDSHIP'S ONLY SORROW IS IN PARTING
(modifid Petrarchan form)
There are SO many joys of knowing Friendship!! :
the smiles "heard" through words on paper written;
the sweetness of thoughts sent through the "air";
the extraordinary feelings engendered in a pause;
the lovely "floating-on-air" until next meeting;
the deep-penetrating pang of "I'm LOVED" we share;
being "together", two minds ONE, united, combined;
the synergy in all of it surpasses nuclear potential!
ALL the world will remember, as they read our evidence:
".....no-one like you.....my heart.....eternally.....
....OVERJOYED!....OURS alone....my book and treasure....
....YOU alone....SO glad I found you....ALL of me..."
High and away from separation, singing we'll soar:
Loneliness!!, from today we'll know you no more!!
"There are SO many joys of knowing Friendship!! :

Bravo! Love this one Rex. If I can find a spare minute or two I may take up your challenge.
As you know by now, I value friendship as a true gift. I am so very glad that you are among my treasured few.
Love,
