Majestic Friendship

Listen to poem:

We monthly meet
To pray and eat 
Once children, small
Now several feet

Some rich, some poor
It matters not
Irrelevance of
What we've got

In worldly stuff
Our wealth not mired
My comrade content
Is love inspired

At table share
Our lives in full
Our seasons vibrant
Sometimes just dull 

To glasses raise
These humans dear
My heart is full
So glad you're here

As life unfolds
Both up and down
This friendship king
Has earned it's crown

Sotto Poet Date: 12/10/2023 12:44:00 PM Reading your poem brought back fond memories of times spent with pals from my youth. Just like you, I feel blessed to have shared a little bit of my life with them. I thought the quote and poem were great from start to finish. Blessings Sam Login to Reply Sam Scott Date: 12/11/2023 2:10:00 AM I think the older we get, Sotto, the more precious memories and friends become.. especially when we have journeyed through life so far and shared so much of ourselves. Blessings to you my friend - and thank you :)

The title conveys the poem so aptly. ‘ My comrade content’ ‘ Is love inspired’ - wonderful lines and especially the last two as well.

Ink Empress Date: 11/25/2023 6:20:00 AM Negativity is contagious i agree with that quote, especially paranoia too hah. We must always be careful with who we let in to our circle as friends. I think here you are talking about your childhood mates. I dont really have childhood friends. Infact I have seasonal friends. Lucky are the ones that get to have such precious ones around to make an effort to give time atleast once a month or year despite busy lives. Love the last lines and rhymes.Pleasure reading you sam. Sending you light always Login to Reply Sam Scott Date: 11/25/2023 7:31:00 AM I think the test of a great friendship is longevity and that thing where you can pick up where you both left off without skipping a beat. I love the idea of seasonal friends too. Thank you Inky friend :))
