My Dear Friend

Dear Friend
I have missed you so
During the Summer and Spring
I missed you too
You come by a couple of times
But it is not everyday
When Autumn arrives it's like you disappear
I miss you so
All our memories
They start to fade
But I will Remember
Like no other

When Winter arrives you get cold
You come to me in a different form
You make everyone happy, except me
I want you for myself
I want your Summer time and Spring
You can spend Winter with everyone else
But you will not be as happy as you are with me
Dear Friend
I long for you to come
To turn my dread into nothing more

Make me feel calm again
Please my Dear Friend
Come back when I ask
To see you run down my window is enough
To hear you play the drum on the ground
So loud you deafen others, just to please me
You ruin everything that should be dry
My Dear Friend, the Rain

I've had a friend read to me a poem about something I did not know until the very end. His poem was about money. And reading this poem I really did expect it to be about a person but it was a pleasant surprise to learn the truth. It's so interesting the way these typs of poems are made because they are musical and pleasing up until the very end. They kept everyone guessing. And then when you finally reveal it, its as if everything finally makes sense. I love watching people's expressions when they read poems like this, because you can see the moment of realization. Thank you so much for this poem. Have you ever made another poem like this about something even a little more specific?

Becca.
