An Ode To The Good Friend Even a heavy heart Just like my own Can be Lifted up high With a smile by an old acquaintance Who said he cared Do you remember June? That month when spring begins! And forget the cool chill. Oh I can see Summer Is just a month away But keep me the sweet blooms Of the apple orchids And every good fruit bared The Harvest will bring me The even greater joy!!! -Juju -Juju -"So you found a girl Who thinks really deep thoughts What's so amazing about really deep thoughts " Silent all these Years, Tori Amos [This message has been edited by Juju (02-20-2009 07:21 AM).] |

Yo dear Juju, This is excellent work. I remember apple trees from when I lived in the country. They were beautiful in the Spring. Love Bobby |

This is great work Juju. Sometimes you need an old friend. Never sigh for a better world, it's already composed, played and told. |

This is real nice. Glad to see a good mood hanging around you. -P Some people fall in love and touch the sky, some people fall in love and find quicksand. |

When one pens feelings with the nuances of nature, I am sure to be hooked and you did superbly on this. Lovely verse and a pleasure to read. |

I like this...it reminds me of something someone told me long ago...he used to say that there would never be another suicide or runaway teen if everyone who considered such things knew that there was at least one person who truly cared for them...I learned to accept that and put it into practice in the lives of others...I have never regretted it... |

I'm a lover of harvest time too. Lovely mood for a folk song and acoustic guitar. Well done! Eric |
