Your poem is excellent. Love reading your poems. If you have been writing for that many years, no wonder your poems are so well written. Do you ever go to the Kentucky Derby?

Yes, life is full of acquaintances and other folks good and not so good but true friends are very rare. A friend that cares for you unconditionally, unfortunately there is only one...God.

Your last two lines sum this wonderful poem up excellently, we must hang onto and trust true friends as that right they have earned, it takes tears to build such a trust, very well written and I like this form of poetry****kahpot

This work has reached the exceptional level

As I stroll through my hall of memories,
surveying all that's good and all that's strife.
It seems some inner wisdom in me sees
the joys and blessings friends gave to my life.

What a beautiful poem. Loved the closing line:

True friendship is a given, never bought.

This is so beautiful.

I like this posting so much. Over my lifetime, I have lived in more than fifty places. Finally, I am where I think it is going to be the last of them. I have left so many people behind, but thankfully, the friends I have acquired where I now live are wonderful and supportive. This is a great joy to me.
You have written a very special sonnet!

In my opinion, a premise definitely worth defining in salutation, and it is accomplished in warm narration, though unevenly rendered in spots - this, by a uniquely gifted and prolific writer...

It's certainly wonderful to have good friends - and for me to have long-term friends to whom I can turn and ask for prayer - tell about a current crisis - or just chat in friendliness. Nice poem.
