For Conner

Conner, my friend, so sweet and kind,
Our friendship has stood the test of time,
Through laughter and tears, we've been through it all,
Your loyalty and compassion never fail.

I sometimes fear you don't want to hear,
My rants and rambles, that are not so clear,
But like a steady rock, you're always there,
With open arms and patient caring glare.

No matter the distance, you know when I'm gone,
Your concern and love, never forsaken,                                                                Something for I have lorn
