Cheri

Oh, such a soft voice
That flows with beauty
So humble, yet afraid
A beauty So different
Delicate to handle
Like a rose with it's thorns
Only night moon light
could hold
what will never wilt.
a love always felt.

I have friends I count with my right hand and she one of them.

‘What will never wilt, a love always felt.’
A truly beautiful and poetic line. With your words I’m sure she feels as lucky as you do. This is such a charming and romantic poem with beautiful lines. The visuals that are painted here are just as amazing. Thank you for sharing.

I didn't think anyone could feel what I wrote, it took time for me to even 💬 of writing this. Thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts.

touching sentiments. a very dear person to the author held in high regard. there's a reason why roses have thorns of course - that which is delicate and beautiful must be protected ... :)

A beautiful love poem; such soft, delicate words, comparing her to rose petals... but very fragile...as roses wilt, she does not...she is forever....only in the moonlight...but still delicate...love will never wilt; it bonds like glue.....
Best, Betty

To have a friend that you would write a poem like this about is a very special gift indeed. You hang on to her and let her how special she is to you. Nicely written.
