One Constant
~*Marge Tindal*~
Circling of a friendship
has been going on for years
holding hands through laughter
holding hearts through the tears
In and out ... and roundabout too
ups and downs ... and ins and outs
that's sure what we've been through
Held gentle keep of hearts-in-break
Yes dear friend we've done that too
For all of our time in deep respect
I have known always, when need be
you'd be there if I should call
in mutual respect held so dear
the constantancy of a friend
that I hold so very dear
~*Wynter Bliss*~
One Constant

~Dedicated to you, Maureen~
~Keeping the circle of our friendship constant~
~Looking forward to at least five more years~

the spirit rejoices over what it has left.

Oh, what a precious pearl of friendship!
Such perfect shape of words, in all senses!

Well you know I love the moon Marge...and of course your friendship.

And it couldn't have been at a more precise moment that we were thinking of each other today...it makes me smile because whether esp, or because I wanted to think of a happier time...it happened, and what more can I say, but that as one of my first poetry friends ever, we are proof that friendships last with understanding, compassion and love.

Here's to another 5.

and thank you for such a lovely poem~~

Marge...this is a lovely tribute to
friendship and to a cherished friend.

And Maureen?...

"friendships last with understanding,
compassion and love."

Indeed they do...and may I add?...
honesty, respect and forgiveness.

Hugs to you both,
~Vicky

love of power the world will know peace.

You all know that I thank you dearly for your comments~

When Maureen and I met years ago, on another poetry site, there was a bonding that has carried us through these years~
I found a poem of Maureen's done in a circle, that fascinated and intrigued me ... I copied to a Word Pad ... determined that someday I would learn how to do what she had done.
Sooooo, my love for the 'formed' poetry began.

She and I have circled-full ... and I'm richer for knowing her and having gotten the chance last year to meet her~

Margherita~
Thank you for the read and generous reply~

WynterGal~
I've loved all the names of you ...
each one a treasure to me~
Somehow the WynterBliss has always been my very own favorite ... but the mirrored reflections of you are just oh, so special~
LOVE YOU~

Vicky~
Thank you ... yes, and all of those traits are certainly embraced in the true of friendship~

Skyshine~
Thank you .. and yes~

Patricia~
Thank you kind lady~

MsMartiLove~
You and I know the same timeline of our friendship ...
I treasure you~
And to have eventually dragged you here was a treat to be shared by ALL~

Enchantress~
Thank you sweet lady ... and yes .. she most certainly is~

Ed~
I so appreciate your reply~
Indeed, it is a two-fold blessing to maintain the close-knit kinship~

*Huglets* to all~
