To lay down your life for a true friend! Both the definition of a true friend and true love. Eloquently depicted in this excellent poem. Doris, Congratulations on a very well deserved Poem Of The Day!
Thank you for the appreciation. You make me know someone hears out there, through time.
Strong feelings straight from your heart. Beautiful to read with further understanding with your notes.
