A Friend In Need Comments

I echo others' comments. A real lesson in how a poem can emerge from a fairly commonplace incident. Great stuff.

janice its superb the combo of the tracks signifying travel and transition and the hard bench the hard realities of life....the smattering of compassion excellent...very nice cheers

As Alison does so well, so do you, by being observant and crafting this snippet of life into a poem. We women are good at sticking together in times of need. 10 Karin Anderson

Poems seem to 'fall out of the air' when the poet is on her toes. This little slice of life would have passed many an observer by. Thankfully, you were there with your compassion and your skillful pen - to record it for us all. Excellent poem. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
