Melbourne's own "vanilla Gorilla". Dedicated to a very old friend who checks in now and then like he was here just yesterday.
I'll always appreciate you Bill
He's a little of genius...a little by-polar
He's tall and goofy and comes in colors
My friend who needs me as I need him
Looking good while always grim
Talking proud then switching lanes
Making my day or giving me pains
Sending the roses to ease the hurt
Always moody...sometimes the flirt
Fruitloop partner to this silly woman
I hate him going then dread him coming
Friend of worth who seldom smiles
Still the friend who'd walk a mile
Devoted pal of eager tears
The friend I'll love for all my years
So much the hero to my needs
He sees the flower in my weeds
I adore each quiet and tiny whimper
Every nuance...but not the temper
But friends you know are the treasure
With heart-to-hearts in any weather.
This is well written Susan, I love the descriptive lines, short and precise. The humor too.

fruitloop partner to this silly woman???-why would you call yourself silly?? I for one think you are a wonderful person and a good friend to all-still I did like your poem
I am sure you've made your friend feel very special. This was a beautiful poem you wrote for him. He should be proud to have you as a friend too. ~ Sara
Well I don't know if I am all that
But that is my picture
And Vanilla rhymes with Bonilla
And I don't remember giving you my piture
Peace & love be with you Susan
A friend is a friend no matter what. What a joy it is when you know
that not only are you a friend to another but when you can actually feel beyond a doubt that they are a friend to you too.
The Wholly Book of Doo-Doo-Rot-on-Me is adult satirical humor featuring adult language and adult content, and the work is a parody of the Old Testament Book of Deuteronomy.
