I'm gathering friends like roses happy and carefree I'm gathering friends like roses Treasured they will be
I'm gathering more roses a token of love ebbing their loneliness at a time of loss
I'm gathering friends like roses sweet as strawberry wine I'm gathering friends like roses grateful they are mine
I'm gathering more roses loneliness crossed the line each of you became a friend and made the world sublime

A lovely rhythm Adette and lots of repetition which i like to see in poems, it enhances the main theme beautifully..

Thank you so much Cindy and Stella for such wonderful comments - my head is trying new directions, sadly some I can't win Must admit this poem out of the blue after treating myself to some roses - you know that thing one does to compensate for thihgs going wrong. Sending to Cindy as not certain if this thak you will reach her.
