As fate would have it…I called your name
The afternoon....I know...so vividly
A Sunday....awash.....in September sun
…Yet....shadows.....shroud...the memory

We should all have a friend like this. I absolutely love the verse: 'You were somewhat..../a stranger then…Someone I barely knew / Before the night had claimed the day / An old friend I’d found in you' Beautiful and touching poem.

'Friendship poetry' is, of course, usually always sweet, often 'light' and sometimes even sappy. This, though, I found to be warm, wonderful, honest and.. real. There is love here - the sort of love that comes of sharing experiences and discovering, appreciating and honoring the soul of another. And that... is the essence of friendship. Making this - a terrific piece and a joy to read. Very nicely done, James! ~Christine
