I found a sweet secret
to tuck deep inside,
When you told me
my precious friend
that we will be best buds
for now and evermore.
I looked often around
to find my heart's yearning.
No one can live alone in this world.
Friendship should come from
deep within the heart.
Your wonderful friendship
means so much to me.
For there's little that lasts.
So much fades away.

What a beautiful way to honor your Mother! You have written a wise poem here- life without a friend is half a life, isn't it? What is glorious is if your spouse is also a deep and close friend of your soul, Well written. Well enjoyed.
Totally awesome poem, Tony! Friendship is a secret of love we treasure within our hearts forever, both nourish and nurture one another throughout life, never turning their back on you, there through thick and thin no matter what. Definitely touched my heart of hearts, knowing that you and I are friends, as I read your poem. Ours is a temporary world, yet while we're here together, friendship lasts when it's true and genuine. Friends give from the heart, never counting the cost or expecting anything in return, that's how I've always been in life. Amazing things happen to both people when this is truly practiced. Thank you Tony, loved this beautiful poem. RoseAnn
