Wish I could see you one more time
to give you a hug and say good-bye.
I am having a hard time believing you have passed.
How do I accept the loss of my good friend?

I will miss the loud knocking on my front door;
you would stop by on the slightest whim
you whirled me away like a hurricane.
With only a moment's notice, our wanderings began.

Whether we hopped into your car to shop
or spend time with friends
a day with you was quite the adventure;
even when we talked about nothing.

I can still remember when we first met;
two hours after midnight and I was sitting on my porch.
You started to throw rocks at a skunk; to scare him off.
I told you to stop, he was not harming anyone.

As I saw you walk towards me, I felt a little intimidated
I remember thinking: "oh my God, what did I do?"
But the concern I felt was for nothing;
for you had a pleasant disposition.

Admitting to me that it was wrong
you apologized; and promised to never do it again.
Not for a moment did I think we would become friends;
unaware that a friendship was already forming.

"Oh dear Lord, how I miss my friend."
