Poem for a Friend

Penny Granger is a wonderful person and very gifted Poetess, hailing from Durham, England, who’s friendship I’ve come to cherish. Featuring creative writing which covers a plethora of topics – often including her delightful sense of humor & audio to complement her poetry – I encourage guests to visit her site to read more. Thank you!

In a dream I’ve dreamed
Time and time again
She appears once more
In this poem for Penn

Oh, Penny dear
My heart is here
Reaching out to welcome you

Arms open wide
Now, side by side
Happiness is ours, beaucoup

Yes, this is a dream
One I wish were real
And, who knows, over time what may be

So I close my eyes
With each star I see
Loving thoughts, in the night, you and me

You’re the dream I find
Satisfies my soul
With your company
My life now feels whole
