In Memory of a Friend

/ Salvatore Ala

RIP to my old friend,
Too many stories to attend,
Late-night discussions,
Love-life repercussions,
Readings and road trips
And memorable quips,
Surviving a fire bombing,
Living for poeticizing,
Other wild and surreal times,
A few misdemeanor crimes,
Hilarity and sadness,
A touch of divine madness
That defies death,
Friendship its frozen breath.

  1. A lovely poem, Sal. Love the rhymes. Leslie is on her way over to see me. She’s bringing supper with her. I shall show her your poem. Love, Sharon. ________________________________
