The Friend In a husky voice, he calls to her “little girl” she chuckles quietly as five decades vanish never sure if it’s his wisdom he needs to call to her attention or if she reminds him of someone else Never mind. She listens. |

as do I when you write, for wisdom flows from your pen. I used to have an older friend who called me girlie. Now I've had more complimentary names but I kinda liked that one. Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

This is so very sweet and touching. You said so much here in few words. Some people can catch our attention with a single word. My gramma was one, and the gentleman in your poem another. |
