Duet of bslicker and Paula Finn
With the first line done by Paula, second from Bernie and so forth.
.
.
Friendships Starting
.
.
Sometimes in my mind, i venture a dream,
When two work together, they become a team.
.
You...the sunshine, glowing through the rain,
Me.... bright clouds filtering out the pain.
.
Your strengths fill my weakness, your laughter fades my tears,
And your care and your loving will get me thru my fears.
.
Take my hand, take my heart, leave our past behind,
Because when the future becomes you, you’ll never know what you will find.
.
So dream with me....believing that we can have a love's sweet dance,
Never knowing the song's steps of taking life's chance.
.
This friendship we have started needs room to grow,
With the garden of seeds that we can now sow.
.
So lets nurture this beginning, give it a great start,
Cause Friendships made and keep is like very fine art.


Bernie Slicker and Paula Finn

That is what true friendship is all about. You both did a wonderful job complimenting each others lines.

To all that replied,,, THANK YOU VERY MUCH....
Between Paula and myself we both thank you,, and i give a special thanks to Paula for the 2 of us to have the chance to do this.. It was fun, and i hope maybe someday that we can do it again...  I will say writing a deut in any sort is not easy, but Paula and i had did this in about 3 days time... Guess we should have made a challenge out of it... but then again this was a spear of the moment thing..... Thank you for reading and you response's they are most valued... For my work stated here and i hope to continue it here..
