Barrels Of It Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I have spoiled you with my love!
I know this.
I have given you barrels of it.
And one day a wheel gets jammed...
And that fucks me up,
So I dropped both hands.
You saw me leave...
You thought I ran.
You had thoughts of my abandoning you,
To stand alone.
And that's not true!
I went home to find a fix!
To return and lift you quick.
But you could not sit...
To wait for both of us to carry on!

My Dear Friend
I've known for many many years:
Douglas A. Spence

'Doug, what have I NOT been through
since we have known each other?
AND you were right there with me
With advice (some I didn't like...LOL) ,
And support!
God has blessed me with your friendship,
And I know this. Thank you sincerely! '
