True Friendship

?



Means demanding nothing in return.
In that space, satisfaction is earned
You do not go about hunting for love.
That unique space, like a tender glove.


Genuine respect, then walks your way.
False flattery, will never hold any sway.
For your heart has the eyes of an eagle.
Sparkling bright as stars, they do twinkle.

Beryl Edmonds Date: 4/2/2023 1:49:00 PM Pangie, I find - “Friends pop in and out of our lives, true friendships are those that survive.” ~ Belle Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 4/2/2023 2:16:00 PM Belle, what wisdom. I don’t mind popping in and out. It’s when it gets vicious, and whole groups align to not read you. Or align to have you removed from the Soup.or comment against you under another’s poem, In addition destroy relationships you had. The answer…keep writing, learn more.. grow… Huggs, Pangie xx

Eve Roper Date: 3/26/2023 5:49:00 PM Eyes of an Eagle.. Friendship it is hard to fine. Been there Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 4/2/2023 2:08:00 PM Eve, no kidding.on that comment below… A little worm that crawls back into another leaf. In online relationships..one should remain skeptical. Planning the online destruction of a poet well God sees it. Just be thankful for a few honest souls. And keep writing. Trolls are here commenting all the time. Time to get real. They are like Mold that covers poets poets with flattering comments.but liars.but nobody wants to know that, do they! Huggs Pangie Eve Roper Date: 3/26/2023 10:06:00 PM I have a few That smother you with kisses and hugs, and when your bags turned, there is a little worm that crawls back to another leaf Panagiota Romios Date: 3/26/2023 9:01:00 PM Plenty of fly by nites. Yikes. They are your friend . Then gone? You share your heart and soul with them and they kill you ..how else can I say it? they put you in an early grave where are you covered with ground and you’re calling their name and they’re just gone on to new friends they don’t care. Well, that’s really depressing. I find it here at the a soup and I don’t like it so i’m commenting because flattery is not friendship. Worse is “I have to have my face on everybody’s poem” no thank you I want to scream when I see that. Pangie. How is that for honesty,

Hugs. /Darlene\ xxx. Panagiota Romios Date: 3/23/2023 3:18:00 PM Greetings Darlene. These to me are the only true signs of frieebship. Too many pose as our friends for their benefit, it’s so easy to get bound up with folks who don’t cara a rip. The pretense is a sin. Love means action.and human connecting. It takes a huge heart …Pangiie xo
