Comment from Jim Wile
This was very well done. Although written specifically for your 3 friends, it is general enough to apply to many sets of friends. The rhyme and meter were excellent, and I loved the picture, which I bet one of you did showing the 4 of you.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
A tribute for your writing friends. Your poem brings many good characteristics about your friends. That's what we need in a friend is someone who encourages and inspires; not someone who tries to steal our ideas and thoughts,

Comment from Ida T. Johnson
Such a lovely and LOVING tribute to your dear girlfriends! I particularly like the line "from different walks of life we came": although the four of you have much in common, your differences also complement each other and expose you to new experiences. After all, what's the fun in hanging out with your clones?! Great job! Good luck in the contest!

This is a wonderful tribute to friends. It is great when you can find and keep friends for years. No one knows and understands you like they do.
Excellent end-rhyming and meter. I especially liked the imagery of
a gentle wave of memory--it made me smile.

Comment from Verna Cole Mitchell
This is an excellent poem, a lovely tribute. I love the simile in the first stanza, the metaphor of song for secrets in the second, and the simile in the third. (one suggestion: In the second stanza, the verb should be "pervades" to match the subject "wave.") I hope it does well in the contest.

Comment from Mary Shifman
This is an extraordinary poem and if you don't win the contest, I will be very surprised. The rhyme and meter are well done and the insight into this group of friends is quite clear. On top of all that, it resonates with me.
Good luck in the contest.

It is a wonderful thing in this world to have friends, who would encourage us along the way. Just as you say that your friends encourage you to write poetry. I have friends too that have encouraged me in my writing as well. Have a good day, and God bless. Patricia.
