When old friends disappear <br />for whatever the reason, <br />new friends come along <br />never to take their place <br />but just to stand beside you <br />whenever you need a friend. <br />The old friends live within your heart <br />though their time may have come to part; <br />they will remain in your memory, <br />as each day passes <br />just like your new friends will do <br />when their time comes to part. <br /> <br />4 November 2009<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/come-to-part/
