What an AWESOME birthday greeting for Patty. I loved
reading your poem for her, Debi. First of all, the picture
was precious. You both looked so happy in each other's
company. To think you've been friends for 40 years was
special. Your rhymes worked perfectly, there was smooth
flow to your lines, and the imagery created was great. However
more important was the reason for your card. A true friendship
that has lasted through the years is something few experience.
Yes, God knew the tow of you needed each other and set that
path in motion,
Thanks for sharing,
Happy Birthday, Patty, and many more, Jan

Hi Debi, this poem is a beautiful tribute to Patty. You have traveled a lifetime together, and your friendship has stood the test of time. Your memories are rich and filled with love.

Of special note:
Besides, I need to keep you near, 'cause you know way too much. Lol, if that is not the truth. She's the keeper of your secrets. ð???.

Fantastic photo. Moo.
A pleasure to read. This is a poem of love, and it made me smile. I hope Patty has many more birthdays to come.

What a neat poem about your friendship, Debi. The two of you look like a real hoot together. Those are two great costumes!

I especially loved the last line. Very funny. I love your poems about family and friends, including FanStory friends. I feel like I know you pretty well from all of these, and you certainly are a wonderful friend to have.

Your friend, Jim

    Jim, you are always the greatest, and I have been meaning to ask you for some time now when your birthday is. Certain people touch us in our life, wherever it may be, virtual or home. They are both real life, and both very special friendships form. You my dear friend are one, and hope to write one for you someday. Thanks for the great review and comments, my dear friend. Love, Debi

    That's awfully nice, Debi. My birthday is August 31.

    When is yours?

    Thanks Jim, and you are on my birthday calendar already as we speak. I am October 19th, the same as Pam Lonsdale. We call ourselves twins, because not only do we have the same day, we were born the same year. Thanks for letting me know Jim.

What a warm and touching poem. Your friendship sounds awesome. I have one person in my life like that. Time passes but we are still 12 years old. I loved the ending. Very clever. Happy Easter to you and yours. Gretchen

Aw, how precious is this. Moooove over! Debi's got a new look, or should I say vintage restyling. A friend like this is hard to find. I'm glad you have each other and an eduring friendship.

Sending you my best today as always, and Happy Birthday to Patty!

Hi Debi,
This poem shows how lucky a person can be to have such a close friend
for so long. It is wonderful how all generations of your families are close.
I like the funny twist at the end of the serious poem.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Happy Easter.
Joan

A tribute to a friendship, precious and enduring. Not everyone knows the blessing that this type of friendship provides in one's life, lasting to share with your children and your children's children. Beautiful.

What a wonderful friendship, Elaine and I have four such friends, and few in recent years, they are such precious people, and faithful to our Lord, I can imagine how popular, but it's those long term friends that remain, beautifully written Debi, blessings Roy
