For Eddie (EagleOne)

            ****************
FOR YOU MY FRIEND

The people that you meet throughout your life
Are many and varied
Some leave you with an never-ending joy
Some with sadness and sorrow
And others leave you with an ever-lasting smile
You, my friend are one of these people
With your warm words and heartfelt goodness
You encourage me, and believe in me
And have told me that you care
Thank you for your honesty
You have a beautiful soul
And I am proud to call you my friend

None of us have enough friends like this.  
"You encourage me and believe in me"
what better words could be spoken of a true friend.
Nicely written.

This is a beautiful and well written poem.  It is so wonderful to have such a close friends, particulary one of the opposite sex.  Your poem reminds me of the one I posted earlier this week about my friend.  I really enjoyed it.

boy did I identify with this one!! I loved it! loved it!
I also have a friend whom I have not met, but the closeness, and the sharing and understanding, none can match it!
Yes, it's true, some discard us as if we were not important when we fail to live up to their expectations, but the true friends are there always....through the good days and the bad never giving up.
