We were five years old when we first met
With all the cards of life to be dealt yet
Friends we became and soon we both knew That through thick and thin our friendship would hold true
Countless days and nights through our youth spent together
Looking back now there were no times of better
Good times and bad no matter the cost
I can still hear you say… It’ll be all right Frost
From boys to men through life we became
But my feelings for you would always be the same
You brought me to Florida where I still live today
With all the thanks in the world I could never repay
Though time and miles would come between us I’d find
Not a day went by that you were not on my mind
As I come home today to put you to rest
I can honestly say knowing you was truly the best
Our time together now may be over you see But more time to come is destined to be
You can hear me now for this I know
So until we meet again I love you bro

Excellent tribute.
Thank you so much. I revisit this one on occasion. I was asked to speak at his private service. I was the only friend invited. This is the first poem that I ever wrote. I asked to borrow a pen and wrote it while sobbing on the back of my travel itinerary on a plane. It tore my heart out but we make it. Thank you again. I always prayed that I did my buddy justice.
Oh wow! A beautiful goodbye! Glad you got to experience such a wonderful friendship! And you're obviously keeping the memories alive. Great way to pay tribute to someone who was so close to you!
Thank you and I am appreciative of you taking the time to comment.
