In Memory of My Friend, Vanessa Kaye Travers (WC 16)

Posted by Chere Poole on December 29, 2008 at 5:00am
This is a poem I wrote for my friend, Vanessa Travers in 2004. She was a true friend, and always inspired me to be a better person. She had the greatest capacity to love I've ever seen. I had a lot of respect for her and the Word she lived, and count her death as one of the greatest losses in my life. I post this poem as a tribute to her.

A TRUE FRIENDby Chere L. PooleIt’s an unexpected callOn an over-hectic dayIt’s someone who hears it allNo matter what you have to sayIt’s a helping hand extendedWhen you stumble on the wayIt’s someone who lifts your burdensWith no cost for you to payIt’s a shoulder you can cry onWhen you cannot stop the tearsIt’s someone who understands youAnd helps dissipate your fearsIt’s an ally in your struggleStanding faithful at your sideIt’s someone who doesn’t judge youWhen your faults you cannot hideIt’s a place to store your secretsAll your velvet-covered dreamsIt’s someone who believes in youWhen your goals all hopeless seemIt’s a heart you can rely onHonest, caring, tender, trueIt’s a heart you can abide inIt’s a true friend, it is youCopyright 2004, all rights reserved
