Measure for Measure

Tasted memories, a tongue's delight
best habits are seen in dimmed light
Under summer canopy, a season brief
For once was joy, and now is grief.

A million accidents, I am none the wiser
A victim of chance, a happiness miser
For how can we know, how green is the grass
when life is looked through undusted glass

But time marches on, without losing a step
We still touch souls, so carefully we crept
A rich man, I am: your friendship I treasure
Always by your side:Measure for Measure.


(For a dear friend who has stuck by me,
through thick and thin)

They say that you attract what you are! I am certain that he too, has a fine friend in you---and this poem shows that I am correct in this belief. This was wonderful!

Some friendships are just that,
they weather the storm and come out of it in tact after all that's  been said and done~  

giving it time is a good thing....

You poetry holds so much meaning Jeff~
and I thank you for it....
