For a Friend Whose Tears Fell on My Shoulder

For a Friend Whose Tears Fell on My Shoulder

 

If you really feel like crying

Don’t hide your face away

Take a long hard look at me

No-one’s worth the tears you shed today

 

I understand he did you wrong

When all the time you did him proud

My friend that’s life and love is a merry-go-round

Special indeed for anyone to have a friend who will allow those tears to fall on their shoulder. That is true friendship, no holding back by either party. Rare, I would say. Nicely conveyed Neville.

normally my shoulders, tho broad are reserved for parrots... thanks for being special.... N

Tear today gone tomorrow.
That alteration almost works.

But not as good as your lovely poem. Very heartfelt.

[Neville]

You are a friend indeed... Nev but in my blubbering whines... at that time. don't be surprised if i didn't kick you in the behind! (and of course you would be right:) how you condense so much in so few lines always blows this bunny's mind.

Your style is sweet and simple, as is letting your friend cry on your shoulder every once in a while. Is it whose? or who's?:)

[Neville]

Whose... Oh' how I love to be so corrected, N
