Stand By Me

Love immortal and unchanging devotion spans the wall Over which we go exchanging our smiles with one and all

Becky and I

We seek a kind and faithful friend

devotions sweet flower

One who will stand by till the end

lighting the darkest hour

 

Love immortal thoughts exchanging

devotion scales the wall

There we share our love unchanging

with smiles for one and all

 

Her guiding hand which proves so sound

my inner soul to see

Oh may no love that's ever found

mean more than she, to me

That last stanza is poetic perfection. Immaculate. This whole piece is powerful and incredibly tender, you are so lucky to know love and to have been loved in this way... I enjoyed this poem very much, you're a remarkable writer, Tate. 1

Two friends look very happy and close
They merged together like buds of rose

I hope they will always keep their sweet smile
Their friendship has inspired me for a while

Few friends last the course as we progress on our quest. I have sadly outlived my friends
