I love to run with Blue at night
even when life's not quite right
love the way she grabs my hand and off we fly
we laugh at simple stupid things
make fun of how I talk and sing
and gang up on people we meet along the way
not in malice with them we jest
for to see if they get the point I guess
of what two intelligent people can do with only words
later on we sit and chat
bout here and there and this and that
and I find that I'm not as lonely a man as once I was
now true..Blue I have not ever met
well not in flesh but still you'll bet
that a friendship of this sort need not mere skin
for ours is friendship of the soul,
soft at times and still more bold
that perhaps we would be in the flesh
and so my dear one as I write
perhaps we'll have a run tonight
over fields of clover and moonlight on the hills
and should we meet a simple soul
we'll have to make him laugh you know
or at least we'll leave him wondering
what on earth we are
my wish for all You readers dear
is that your hearts may never fear
true friendship... even if its only heart and mind

" and I dream of her always,
even when I don't dream.
her name's on my tongue
and her blood's in my stream."

'Christmas in Prison' John Prine

I liked the carefree feeling of this poem even though there is an underlying thread of lonliness in it. Good job!
