Yet another dear friend has moved away
And I think of her most every day
Her old house at times I drive by
I find myself sometimes stopping to say Hi

Then I remember it’s no longer her place
I drive away with a smile on my face
Thinking of how it used to be
And how she’s still a good friend to me

Oh how I wish she were still here
Though she will never move back I fear
She’s happy now at her new abode
Down at the end of that long country road

I’m happy for her as a friend should be
And someday soon her new place I’ll go see
But until that day I want her to know
That I’m thinking of her and miss her so


Dedicated to Deb

LOL Irie!   Beautiful poem. If I could
learn to stop being in such a hurry
I wouldn't have to edit anything. hehe

Wonderful touching tribute to your friend!

Wonderful Irie ... I've just moved myself, and it's so odd to think of someone else in the place we "used to call home".  Lovely poem, and best wishes to you and your friend.

Netswan...
     Just another one of my problems. Always in a hurry!  

Kit...
     Very odd thing isn't it. Strange to see someone else there.

Aleisha...
      She has read it my best friend!  

SpitFire...
      Ditto above.  

Thank you all for your nice replies!  
I'm glad you enjoyed!

I hope you see your friend very soon, not to renew your friendship but to enhance it !!

Your feelings were expressed very well, by the time i reached the last line, I felt like one my friends was leaving !!
