I like the eight syllable lines. Shorter lines resonate well with rhymes closer together (for me anyway). The poem stays on point. The images are clear. The conversational language adds warmth. The last couplet is a nice wrap up of the narrative.

Thanks for a good read.

As always you bring wisdom in your words and make our lives that much richer.
We must remember that it was and is our friends that helped us along the way.
Best wishes

Nicely put. The memories of friends we will never forget placed in a good sonnet. The best place to see my friends is on fb. Talk to them just about everyday. Great work! R56ma3:Susan C.

Very nice Jaybird!

I like to judge poems on their hypnotic affect.. whether or not I lose track of time while reading.

The only part in the piece where the timing tripped me up.. awakening me from my trance was:

"We must be brave, must face each day,
there really is no other way"

..something about the "other" I can't quite nail down.

That's all tho..
Great poem!

I have lost many good friends over the years also. They can never be replaced but as you say the memories are ours to keep. Nice poem. Best wishes. Jen.

This modern sonnet, Remembered Friends, takes account of all those in our lives who have had and will have our back now and in the future.

As ever, Jay, you bless us with wise words to live by. Each of us got here with the help of our friends and loved ones, be they long deceased or close by. We never really lose them! IN line two, did you possibly mean "strength?" I looked for a meaning for "strench" but could not find one!
(And I am the QUEEN of typos!)
