My Friend, Joanne

Was it in 2002, or perhaps it was ‘03?
This memory seems, to have failed me
For if you were to ask me then
I really don’t recall quite when

But this poem here, is all for you
Remember, you had asked me too
I told you then, it could not be
That this would have to come to me

Well now it has been quite awhile
Much later by a thousand smiles
But on this day, thoughts of you my friend
Made me run quick, to get my pen

I grab some paper and start to write
Before these words in mind take flight
For if they’re not put quickly there
They’d vanish, into the thin air

Joanne, today I say to you
These words heartfelt, and are so true
Our lives, would have been lesser then
If we had not, have touched as friends

God Bless
