Hi E.,
You always listen, engaged and ready to learn more about my experiences, my perspectives, my barriers, my dreams.
You always check-in on me as time passes, peeking in to see how things are going.
You always support me when I excitedly announce a new thought, idea, plan; even when I, myself, am unsure.
I always thought that I would never build a deep friendship with someone thinking that I was too different, too unwanted; and you were the one who showed me that there is good in everyone. That a soft approach is always possible, even if I can’t personally do it yet.
that I could always lean towards you for guidance, and feel comfortable sharing my own advice.
The moments we’ve spent together have been the most precious my life.
Here’s to a million more.
Thank you, and have a great day,

Thank you for the daily poetry prompt from Poetry in Voice.
Have the courage to write a baldly, nakedly, stupidly honest poem about someone you know, dead or alive, and say what you really feel about them. Try prompting yourself with rough starts like this, YOU HURT ME, YOU ALWAYS, YOU NEVER; YOU, MY DARLING YOU. (From Lynn Crosbie)
Lucy (The Egg Girl) dedicates this and many other egg memes to a friend who has been such a ray of sunshine in her life. To true, supportive, healthy friendships, we raise this glass. 🍾
