This is a very well written tribute to friends that helped create memories. I had a few close friends when younger, and I treasure those times. Thanks for sharing.

This is a great poem with its aabb rhyming scheme. I love sonnets. It was the first work I'd ever read by Shakespeare. And it was one of the first poems I'd written. Great job.

Hello Jake,
Your type of sonnet is wonderfully written in smooth iambic tetrameter
excellent aabb rhymes. Perfect reflective couplet/sonnet on the
importance of friends who help us in this life.
Life would be empty without good friends and family.
Nicely done.
Best wishes.
Robert

Nicely done with a modified sonnet, Jaybird. Nice rhyme scheme, and the meter is good. The message is a good one. By the way, what is a "night time heart"?

Lovely theme and lovely rhyme and a great reminder that friendship, love and memories can sustain.
"days burdened with a night-time heart" - that is quite beautiful and so apt.

Jay,
This poem has a smooth meter and reminds us that those that are no longer bodily here are with us in our memories. They will be until we die and then we will see them again.
Keep writing and stay healthly
Joan

As my older sister, perhaps nears her end at seventy-eight, this poem could be handy to remind her life is short but life after death never ends, and hopefully, she'll reunite with family and friends that made those memories.
