Two Hundred Hour Friends
Science says it takes about 200 hours
Being together with someone
To become a true friend
Some books are hard to let go
Friends left on a shelf
For so many years
Old shoes have served so well
Walking companions weathered through time
Yet their tongues cannot talk
Reach out to another
At any store
In line at the P.O.
In a minute or two
One common theme
Makes an instant 200 hour friend
Many thanks to all my new and yet to be new friends on Lexpomo. This is such a great place to be… and craft our written work. Keep the candle lit and take care all!

I love reading your clever writing in this “friendly” Love letter to all the LEXPOMO Poet friends…!
I liked learning about the 200 hour gauge.
Bravo to all the poems you wrote this June!!
