Poem: Ode to Friendship Poem

Posted by Judy Eun Kyung Kim on

Did you ever have a friend

Who came from nowhere appeared

Saved your life from loneliness

Detra was a social scene in one diva body queen

Her presence attracted a cozy real audience

Dee helped Ben pick out my ring

My forever engagement ring

Good life and love to you Dee

Forever my sister spirit
