The Joy Of Being With Friends Poem by Richard Wlodarski
The Joy Of Being With Friends
When with friends...waking up...smiling
Baptized by morning...sunning...feeling alive
Christened...excited...motivated
Blinded by light...energized by sun
When with friends...afternoon delight...so right
Fishing for sunlight...waiting for twilight
Catching gift of bright...such a wonderful sight
Enlivened by light...in the eternal fight
When with friend's...sunset's surprise
Eyes in awe of Deity's gift...colored...in mystery
Perceiving...miracle of life...tonight
God's chatoyant canvas...showing off...life
When with friends...starry starry night
Van Gogh painting...the sky tonight
Don McLean reaching out... to Vincent's soul
Captivated by the artist's sole role
Next only to family and God! I am so greatly saddened when I hear of people who have no friends.
Thank You Richard for sharing this gem. Top score.
Calling it a 'gem' is such a great honour! I am truly grateful, Poet Menon!
Friends are forever, bright and shining, like Vincent's painting 'Starry starry night'....Superb poem Richard.....10
And as bright and shining as your magnificent series about his very tragic life! So many thanks for your very positive response, Geeta!
