Memories of a dear friend wrapped in a shadow along with another friend's tears

Life and how it plays tag with our feelings.. ..

Moments of Joy Senryu

A Poem by Frieda P

 

For Emma JOY

 

We live in moments,

if we are lucky enough~

we embrace Joy too!

“Drink wine. This is life eternal. This is all that youth will give you. It is the season for wine, roses and drunken friends. Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life.”

― Omar Khayyám

I remember her, and this is a fine thing you do, expressing love, reverence and remembrance for a dear friend. The list grows long of our departed WC friends.

we never met but somehow met in the most glorious funny and sisterly friendship. Freida taught me how to make fun of myself and be proud of how my ribs could ache because of it!
I'll always miss her, ejg became more than she ever was because of that wonderfully crazy, multi-gifted woman with a heart as large as a planet

I remember Frieda although didn't know her as well as yourself. She obviously knew you well though and her words hit the nail right on the flat non pointy end, because we'd all love to embrace a bit of Joy! 😃

I loved Frieda's poetry and interaction with others on the site...She was certainly the Jersey Girl.

Do you ever hear from her....do you know what happened to her?

[emmajoygreen]

No, jacob, very sadly I don't know what happened to her.. have suspicions. Can't/won't presume but feel she would have told me had she been able. She was one of the closest and most genuine friends I've ever had, that includes jn my offline life. We even had our own Italian type language - crazy beings that were. Never have forgotten her, never will.
