Wow, what a deep and beautiful expression of friendship. In the telling, you invite us to know not just your friend, but also who you are. And I would feel privileged to know both. Simply exquisite.

    Thank you very much for reading and leaving such a lovely review. I really appreciate your time and attention. It was a poem I had to think about a lot and not at all at the same time, so I'm glad it came out well enough that you like it.

The one thing I know about people is never to revere them too much, they know that they will let you down at some stage, we can provide hope a value to people to a point, but we know we sometimes teeter on the edge, only God deserves such trust. This is divinely inspired, beautifully written, blessings Roy

    Thank you very much for reading and reviewing. We've definitely let each other down a time or two, but for the most part, I couldn't have asked for a better friend.

A poem of sincerity, almost like an ode in tone! This is a genuine tribute to a friend/lover. It speaks of tough love, suggesting a trust and belief in
his judgement which has helped you accept criticism at times. I like the intimacy suggested by the font.

A fine tribute to someone you care and admire and I enjoyed the journey here, a dedicated gardener weeding out the thorns and praising faith with friendship and a loving heart, much enjoyed, fine words, love Dolly x

I take it this is a genuine tribute to an actual friend, Rex, and what a delightful tribute it is, full of wonderful imagery and precise examples of how this man makes your own life better.

There seems to be one 'if' statement near the middle which doesn't reach a natural conclusion: '...if you could see as I have seen:
the beauty of your determined faith;' then what?

Delightful poem. Well done.

Steve

I had a hard time following this maybe if you explained what you're writing about in your authors notes. Have a merry Christmas and stay safe and stay healthy in the new year.
