Val...
So great to have such a unique friendship.
Kindred spirits...kinda like twins, but not. Just those feelings that exist are rare to find..
You & Allen are lucky to share such a friendship.
Val has created a moving poem. I love the description of his friendship with Allen. The photo that Val has chosen to illustrate the friendship is very interesting.
A touching poem expressing true friendship between kindred souls, Val and Allen. An enjoyable read.
Thanks for sharing, Brenda.
Thank you for posting this link Brenda.
I will not try to express, here, those emotions that Val's poem jump started in me.♤☆~~~~☆☆☆
Val knows how very much I appreciate his creations, and how.. just as..very much his friendship means to me☆☆☆☆☆<<^^^>>
I give thanks for the substance in all those things Val's creations help me find. Helping me to, perhaps, find that elusive meaning of "Allen"

My friend Val Karas has humbled me with this tribute so I had to share it. Val never seeks praise nor does he believe in the reciprocal exchange of comments, but how could I not share this here? Thank you Val, you don’t realise how much this, and your friendship...

Can a straight woman and a straight man be friends??I'm always hoping the answer to this question is yes, since I have had, and have straight guy friends...but I've also had drama having guy friends. I had the craziest sex dream about one of my guy friends a couple of weeks ago, and I can't...
