Poem

This is a poem for all my friends CASE 1: Kelly Sedey had one wish, for her boyfriend of >three years, >David Marsden, to propose to her. Then one day when >she was out to lunch >David proposed! She accepted, but then had to leave >because she had a >meeting in 20 min. When she got to her office, she >noticed on her computer she >had some e-mail's. She checked it, the usual stuff >from her friends, but then >she saw one that she had never gotten before. It was >this poem. She simply >deleted it without even reading all of it. BIG >MISTAKE! Later that evening, >she received a phone call from the police. It was >about DAVID! He had been >in an accident with an 18 wheeler. He didn't survive. > >CASE 2: Take Katie Robinson She received this poem and >being the believer >that she was, she sent it to a few of her friends but >didn't have enough e-mail addresses to send out the >full 10 that you must. Three days later, Katie went to >a masquerade >ball. Later that night when she left to get to her car >to go home, she was >killed on the spot by a hit-and-run drunk driver. > >CASE 3: Richard S. Willis sent this poem out within 45 >minutes of reading >it. Not even 4 hours later walking along the street to >his new job interview >with a really big company, when he ran into Cynthia >Bell, his secret love >for 5 years. Cynthia came up to him and told him of >her years. Three days >later, he proposed to her and they got married. >Cynthia and Richard are >still married with three children, happy as ever! > >This is the poem: >Around the corner I have a friend, >In this great city that has no end, >Yet the days go by and weeks rush on, >And before I know it, a year is gone. >And I never see my friends face, >For life is a swift and terrible race, >He knows I like him just as well, >As in the days when I rang his bell. >And he rang mine but we were younger then, >And now we are busy, tired, etc. >Tired of playing a foolish game, >Tired of trying to make a name. >"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Him >Just to show that I'm thinking of him." >But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes, >And distance between us grows and grows. >Around the corner, yet miles away, >Here's a telegram received, He died today. >And that's what we get and deserve in the >end. > >Around the corner, a vanished friend. >Remember to always say what you mean. >If you love someone, tell them. Don't be >afraid to express yourself. Reach out and >tell someone what they mean to you. >Because when you decide that it >is the right time it might be too late. >Seize the day. Never have regrets. > >And most importantly, stay close to your >friends and family, for they have helped >make you the person that you are >today.
