A Friend Far & Away

I have a dear friend far & away
Down a ocean’s length
I must say
I often think about her
As I sip warm honey wine
Swaying on my hammock
On occasional tropical
Breezy cozy nights
70 degrees I think
The frogs serenade my laziness
As I listens to soft melodies.

A waltz I fantasies
Dancing with her
In the grandeur of a Ballroom
Amid "Plettenberg’s Bay"
Crusty society.

Of cause
With my nose up in the air
Humming to myself
The Blue Danube
Holding her fragileness
Gently , soft and tenderly

Repeatedly saying “God Bless you”
Every time she sneezed.
From my inside jacket pocket
I present to her a silken hanky
Made just for her
With embroidery initials
“TB”
Of cause again it was only
A dream
She dwells at the bottom
of the world .
To her I say
Take care of that thingy cold
Have a hot tardy before bed
“Rum Tardy“ that is
It should clear your head .

An ocean, all of it between, because was needed so much water to put so much fire out.
Of a loved, imaginary or not, Friend.

What a sweet and endearing poem, William. Gotta love a man who keeps a hanky...however, I do have issues with those who actually use them...saving your buggars in your pocket all day just doesn't seem right these days. Kleenex may have proven to be a great idea but it certainly has lost us the gentlemanly gesture of offering a lady his fine hanky.
Take care,
Sherry
