This is a lovely poem to an obviously lovely person. It is well written and reads nicely. I like the words, "A cherished confidant I found in thee." That is what a good relationship is about.

Comment from Jarlsbane
Jo Lynn, This is a fabulous write regardless of the subject of the poem (although I'm sure he is thrilled that you wrote it) and whether or not your words of his chivalrous nature are true and accurate! :) The important thing is the endearing friendship that is watered and nurtured by your lovely words. Such a beautiful sonnet. - xoxo Jarls

Comment from Nicnac
This is a lovely sonnet, Dawn. It flows beautifully.
You've conveyed the love and admiration you have for your dear, chivalrous and mighty friend very nicely. How refreshing to hear that chivalry is still sought and respected. :)
I walked inside thine halls of empathy <--Beautiful. My favorite line.
Well written, beautifully displayed.

Dear Dawn,
This person really must be something. Quite an ode to a man who is chivalrous and totally good. Excellent use of language and it flows very well.
Warm regards,

Your description of your "dear friend" seems spot on to me! This is a well-constructed and heartfelt sonnet to a friend who may not always put his best foot forward with some people :-) Brooke

you know I actually have several friends this could apply to but that one dear one is who inspired it. Thank you, Brooke.

I like this poem. It is so refreshing to hear of someone being empathic and chivalrous in this age when chivalry is dead. Call me old fashioned but I love the idea of old fashioned courtesy and plain good manners.

Comment from Deejharrington
"in our souls devotion will abide" is probably the most powerful line in a very emotionally charged poem. There is no greater gift, the heart and soul given freely and forever. You have a real gift for this style of poetry.

This is a beautiful poem. It sounds like a lovely tribute to a friend to a friend who doesn't realize how much they mean to you. You words flow so smoothly. Nice job. Happy writing, Shirley
