GRETL

Quite recently it was
Just by coincidence it seemed
Or was it more by design
That I met someone exceptional
It almost was divine.

From Days of Old
We bantered about
So much we had in common.
Though far apart
Concepts of old
Music and art
All was as we had imagined.

We relish our findings
With mutual thoughts
Glad we had found each other,
Such empathy hard to beget
Leads to fuller understanding.
We trust one another
With implicit faith,
Mindful of each other’s respect.
We will nurture each other
As best as we can
To make ours a permanent friendship.
