the sun is sparkling, the rain rumbling, and we badly need some poetry...

Hal O'Leary - One Poem


My Dearest Friend

My dearest friend, no truer friend indeed.
It sets our hearts aglow,
But with a cause to make our poor hearts bleed,
I wanted you to know.

It's more than sympathy I feel for you,
Though sympathy is fine.
It's empathy, through which I ache with you,
Your deepest grief is mine.
