Poetry Break #1

July 12th, 2010

I love a good poem. There are some that make me cry, some that evoke memories (good and/or bad), and some that just take my breath away.

I would like to share with you one of my favorites:

A Poem Of Friendship

We are not lovers
because of the love
we make
but the love
we have

We are not friends
because of the laughs
we spend
but the tears
we save

I don’t want to be near you
for the thoughts we share
but the words we never have
to speak

I will never miss you
because of what we do
but what we are
together

~ Nikki Giovanni
