What's a friendship worth after 30 years
Compared to the eternity our parents have together?
Do they look down on you while looking down at us?
What do you suppose they say, knowing I saved your home
From forclosure with the money my mother left for me?
We knew each others parents; do they know each othr now?
The cost of friendship is a twelve pac of mac & cheese
Not exactly equivalent to making sure your family had a home
House payments and taxes became my burden for caring about yours
Yet now the sound of silense is all I ever hear from you

Author's Note
A work in progress... Five years ago I loaned my best friend $4000. to keepher from losing her home. She has not given back a dime of that money. Always excuses and crisies get in the way.
