Your poem is truly a tribute to beautiful, and lasting friendship. Friends that love and support each other and enjoy or give a laugh when needed.
Very well-written and I wish you the very best in the contest.

Mary

Thanks for your comments, Mary. This friendship stretches over 30 plus years; we have lots of laughs reminiscing about some of our failures and successes.
Comment from Pantygynt
Friendship is about sharing and these two seemed to have had more than their fair share of sharing - stuck zippers and cruise skippers to naame but two. the earlier part of the poem though, shows why theygravitated towards each other.

The poem was a bit serious so I lightened it up somewhat. Humour and laughter is a big part of our friendship... we cackle like a pair of old hens.

I am having difficulty equating this image with that of the leather clad motor cyclist ( well at least I remembered not to say 'biker'. Lol

We have a motorcycle club here called the Ulysses Club - its motto is 'Grow old disgracefully'.

I love the rhyming triplets - it leads to a fast paced read and that in turn makes it feel fun which is a perfect tone for this piece. Very well written and I very much enjoyed the read.

Love the image. Even though neither of them looks like you (or how I see you in my mind. maybe in twenty-five years or so!) Lol. But your poem is wonderful, and expresses the values and preciousness of a true and enduring friendship. Care, communication, acceptance, help, humour and much laughter ... it's all there. I hope you do well in the contest.

No, I don't look like either of these women (yet - although it is fast approaching as I am 69 already).

A friend with whom to laugh is a wonderful gift. Don?t worry ? I?m 71, and I can?t believe I am that old!

It happens a bit too quickly. Our young minds in wrinkly packaging.

Lol. I agree.
