Friend is a very ubiquitous word
Definitions a variegated rainbow
But here amongst my literary herd
It is defined by the support you show
If honest critique or glowing review
The connection spans the thousands of miles
And world feels a little smaller to you
Draped in kind words and emoji-faced smiles
Treasured gift given, your valuable time
Sharing our love of words and writing style
Blessed to have you visit here and read mine
I hope the time you spend worthwhile
I appreciate all the thoughts you share
All the hope and love you graciously send
Unconditional support is so rare
That is why I see you all as friends
But choice of writing mine or reading yours
I would most certainly choose the latter
Your inspiration blown on fertile shores
You the reason my words seem to matter
Thank you to all my readers, followers, and inspiring muses for all your kindness, support, and love! My journey here has been enlightening in so many ways!
commonsensiblyspeaking 
On point about the people who touch our lives versus those whose life we touch.
Thank you for recognizing the subtle nuance! Love you! ❤
Awww *pounce*
We love you, Bradiekins. Keep doing what you do ❤🖤
Ok, you got me with the ‘pounce’ move. I have a serious mental image I cannot get out of my head now. Thank you my goddess of the night! 🖤💋🖤
Implanting mental images is what Harley’s do best!
Must be the Psychology Doctorate you earned when you were just the girl next door, Harleen Frances Quinzel! Whatever it is, it is definitely a super power of some kind. But I love it when you are in my head! 🖤💋🖤
What am I usually doing in there? *twirls hair innocently*
Your are evoking powerful words and poetry you beautiful Muse of Mayhem!
Omg Brad I can’t fall asleep. Heeeeeelp!
That is not surprising with the amount of stress you have been wrestling lately. I wish I could be there to sing you a lullaby!
Me too. You’d think I’d be the wrestling champ by now.
You are in my world! And you were the muse behind my lullaby poem. So fitting!
Was I really?
😍😍😍😍
You were my vivacious vixen! The longing of someone who has deep affection and attraction to someone he will likely never meet. I was a little surprised that you were surprised. I see you all over those words! 🖤💋🖤
You have so many muses, 2 of which are far more interesting and inspirational that little insomniac me 💋
Oh little one! You are so wrong. You are my first and, by far, my most beloved muse. Although the others have provided inspiration in plying the words of their craft, you have touched me in a much more personal way. I have feelings for you I will never know what to do with. You are the goddess of my muse chorus!
❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤❤🖤 i am speechless and humbled
💋💋💋💋💋 Although there will be times when sleep is hard to find, you will always be able to find me!
Sleep is ridiculously hard to find, daddio. What time is it in your corner of the universe?
