Matching Pair
By Larry Chadwick

It’s seldom they arrive in pairs,
Perhaps an answer to my prayers.
For friends are a rare find they say,
So I’ll stand by them come what may.

A complimentary set are these,
Women who know how to please.
Smiles to look forward to each day,
The kind and encouraging things they say.

Who could ask for better friends than this,
And be robbed of all this heavenly bliss.
Two gorgeous women each day I greet,
No wonder I think my job is sweet!

Bill,
Thanks a bunch.

Kit,
I emailed the link and will hear from them today. I matted and framed I Traced You Last Night with original artwork for my wife as a Christmas gift and got the response of where is our poem from one of these ladies. LOL

Larry darling boy again I found this lurking right down the page, this is too fine a wonder to be lurking anywhere other than the top of the page.

Wonderful writing darling boy utterly wonderful.

It positively gleams, so where's mine? I've got a Birthday coming up you know, I would love a poem. Don't you owe me one anyway? Were't you on my Crying List? And if you weren't you should have been, I know you've had me crying the odd tear or two.

Fabulous writing utterly utterly wonderful


Love and warm stuff
As always

Larry,

I really love this poem. It reminds me of my best friends who are a man and a woman. I read it to them tonight and they said it was awesome as well. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful poem with us.
