Beautiful expression of friendship. I bet I know who the two models are. I love how you can take any subject and make a beautiful poetic expression out of it. I bow before your mastery.

When we are lucky enough to have a hand to hold 'hand in hand' then the world is a much better place 'The grass grows greener when we stride'.

Comment from Kingsland
Greener grass is a very good idea in this eventuality. I liked the rhythm you wrote this poem in.it Flows off of the tongue so very smoothly. This was a very enjoyable piece of poetic art to have read and written this response for... John

Comment from Donya Quijote
What wonderful sweet-toned poem revealing the joy of love both innocent and pure. The world is indeed a better place when you can go through it with another. All the more special. Perfect picture too... With its whimsy and bounce I think you have the makings of another song, folk variety... A skipping beat or maybe a waltz. Fantastic...

A wonderful poem Brooke of love and friendship. I like the double hand in hand in the middle of each stanza - it works well here.
