The Friday Fling Remembers Lost Friendships!
Friday Fling #258 for November 15th 2013
Continuing the theme started in the CPC’s Thematic Attic yesterday,
this week’s Fling approaches another sort of lost; lost friends.
Unlike finding friends, which can be difficult,
friends, especially cyberfriends, are easy to lose.
Our lives change, or theirs do, or both do.
Friendships depend on maintaining communications,
which can reduce to zero for periods of time.
People move. Or worse, die.
And before we now it, a friend is gone from our lives.
It hardly bears asking if this has happened to you.
But…is there one or more you would like to write about in a poem?
Or would you prefer to write about the realities
of lost friends in more general terms?
Due to the nature of the subject,
we’re not going to hold anyone to any particular format.
This week the Friday Fling ruminates on lost friendships!
Please save time to read and comment thoughtfully
on your fellow Pals’ poetic productions.
Then go enjoy a friendly mid-November weekend!

FRIENDSHIP LOST
(^**^)
I gave my heart to you
Now your gone
And my heart is left in ruins
It hurt to know
That you want be comin back
But I yet to know why you left you said you would be comin back
Yet that I remain to see
Its been a while now
No you
Where have you gone
And took my heart
The feelin of it any ways
So lost without you
Now have to fine me way all over again
While you were here you touch me a lot more than I would have learn on my own
Ahy did you have to go
Waz it me
That broke the bond
Are were it you that grew tire of me
Either way friendship lost yet to be found again
Can we ever get back to the where it all began when we were so close we were one where
There were you there waz me
I think not
But just a simple hello
Once in a while
Just to know that you are okay and still my friend
(^**^)

ODE TO LOST CPC FRIENDS
For (in alphabetical order) Alba, Angel Love, A-Rhodi, Colleen, Diane, Glenn, JT, Lady “Cheryl” Death, Michelle K., Rebel, Ruggi, Sevenamagenta, Tony, Wintah, Wizard of Awws, and many others
When those we love have left the fold,
for numbers more than we could hold,
or due to muses going cold,
we can’t begrudge their search for gold,
only lament the bell that’s tolled.
Sheer gratitude resides within
from their unique creative spins,
from mighty laughs and toothy grins.
No need to even explain why.
We pause, and smile, and say, goodbye.
