Holidays Poem by Patricia Walter

Holidays

Share a glass of wine
enjoy a meal
visit friends
doesn’t have to be a big deal.
It’s the time together
that means the most
not the size of the meal
or who’s the host.

True Friends Poem by Patricia Walter

True Friends

Thank you for sharing a hug and smile
makes a friendship so worthwhile.
Time to care, be a little bold
a friendship never can be too old.
Take some time to hold a hand
makes troubles melt like drifting sane.
Help each other, no regard to time
heart and souls begin to bind.
Thank you for caring, opening your eyes
true friends know they are both very wise.

Glad Your Home

Glad Your Home Poem by Patricia Walter

Glad You’re Home

I am really glad you’re back in town
now I smile instead of frown.
I played and walked, snacked and napped
waited so patiently until you got back.
Now things are good, I can mail a note
tell you how I’ve been, send a joke.
We can share our stories about fun in the sun
glad you’re back home, not on the run.

Going Away

Going Away Poem by Patricia Walter

Going Away

I’m so sad you’re going away.
I’ll look forward to hearing from you, another day.
I’ll keep your memories close at heart
that way it won’t seem like we’re really apart.
I’ll picture you playing on a sunny beach
you won’t be gone long, just out of reach.
When you come back we’ll write again
have lots of photos and stories to send.

Friends are a Joy

Friends are a Joy Poem by Patricia Walter

Friends are a Joy

Friends are a joy
put a smile on my face
share their warmth
with a big embrace.
Friends are dear
carried in my heart
never any distance
when we’re apart.
Friends are a gift
never wrapped in a bow
always a treasure
never just for show.

A Gift

A Gift Poem by Patricia WalterA Gift

A gift is always a surprise to receive.
Big or small
in a plain brown bag
or all wrapped up with a bow.
It may not be expensive
or extravagant at all
perhaps it might even be free.
A flower from the field
a warm smile or hug
an offer of a helping hand.
Always a surprise
the kind act of sharing
much more than the present inside.

What Are Friends For?

What Are Friends For?

What are friends for?
To laugh with
To giggle with
to share your little corner
of the world with.
The joy to visit
over lunch, over tea
to share little secrets
discuss life’s problems.
The freedom, the closeness
the bond of friendship.
Open hearts, open minds
just kind sharing.
That’s what friends are for!

Hello

Just wanted to say
hello – I’m fine
been thinking about you
you’re on my mind.
Wanted to share a little time
even though it’s only on line.

Once Upon a Time

Once Upon a Time Dedicated to Joyce - a friend for 54 years Once upon a time long ago we started out young and thin. Life was new, everything fun always felt we could win. The years rolled by the pains and joys we needed a lot but no more toys. Friends were important our families too sometimes we wished some body parts were new. Our memories sustain us some friends remain the body feel old but the mind feels the same. Poetry & Photo by Patricia Walter 2005 ©

Once Upon a Time

Dedicated to Joyce – a friend for 54 years

Once upon a time long ago
we started out young and thin.
Life was new, everything fun
always felt we could win.
The years rolled by
the pains and joys
we needed a lot
but no more toys.
Friends were important
our families too
sometimes we wished
some body parts were new.
Our memories sustain us
some friends remain
the body feels old
but the mind feels the same.
