As I’ve just completed an embroidery about friendship I thought this poem would follow on nicely for ‘Poem of the Month’
It was written by Susan Polis Schutz. I first came across it in 1978, it was written on a card given to me by my sister on the occasion of my confirmation. I kept the card for years and eventually got it framed, it still hangs in my hallway. My sister lives about 3 miles away, close enough to be there when we need each other, but not in each others pockets!
Someone –
to talk with
to dance with
to sing with
to eat with
to laugh with
to cry with
to think with
to understand
Someone –
to be my friend
My sister, me and Wags the dog on Catbells
