I hear the poet's voice coming through loud and clear. As far as my humble opinion can figure out. Anything else can be replaced. when a good friend has gone, he/she is gone forever. Well, the salve is, I suppose: It better to have loved than never..........
I'll take it. No gain without pain. Hard, ain't it hard.
You are an asset here, not only as an excellent poet, but a great friend to all who know you.

In respect, in sad, a writer gives, shares the cup, remembers the stones, as they pass in review, only voices, I catch a sound and spin, they are gone, at one time I am sad, the next joy, a memory, image captured, mental picture burned, hear their words on the wind.. Walt

If you did not offer your critiques, then where would we be? The spirit of PnP would suffer, I think. Mine would, definitely!
It isn't intended that any writer be marked for the kind of praise you offer--not at the expense of the person offering comment feel uncomfortable. If I could not expect the likes of anyone--amateur, professional, hiding in the closet, slipping down the stairs, to be comfortable offering their thoughts, advice, and wisdom on any of my pieces, that would make me very sad. I'd think no one liked my works enough to tell me that. Or disliked them enough to tell me that me that, also.
So you want me to follow a more traditional format and spell a word the way you are more comfortable seeing it? I can do that. And easily enough. And this piece doesn't lose anything by being "corrected." It just may have gained something, because it wasn't intentional on my part, to create a resting place there, for the reader. LOL
You see how easy that was? It seems like you "dared" very well and because of that, maybe I learned something new. Maybe you did, too. We are all of us, writers, poets, artists, crafts-people trying to work their craft and create the best they can--usually. But none of us is above or beyond the reach of the voices of our fellows, here.
I'd be very disappointed and very puzzled, maybe even hurt, if people didn't comment on my works.
Thank you Spooky Susan for that enlightening and charming comment. If you'll note, the edits have been made to make graveyard one word. ^_^
I'm pleased that you enjoyed this write and to know I have an admirer, that isn't afraid to say so, makes me hope that my writing will become even better!
Thank you! ^^

I thought graveyard was one word? Obviously you are a master in verse and I can't decide if I even dare speak to you or not? How in the world does this site expect the likes of an amateur poet like myself to critique the likes of you or some of the other writers on board! Funny..ha..ha..! I enjoyed this spin on missing friends. Your newest admirer on the West Coast.
