The Exchange

I lost a friend last week. Her smile once lit our high school world.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Exchange

 

 “Grief is the price of love,” I was told

 

In loving, a piece of you is gone, is sold,

 

It is a price worth paying; it is not for naught,

 

Through grief’s deep wounds, a lesson taught.

Beautiful and profound expression in poetic grand. "The Exchange" has the aroma of fraternity... It is a flower with petals of love.

In admiration,
