Thank you Mila, Katty, Ildiko, Jenifer, Shohreh and Marcelo

And here is the poem Mila has written as a tribute to her friends:

Lots words have already been said

But it's so hard to find right ones

To speak about a real friend

Who was with you in ups and downs.

How find the words for a call at night?

With tears, complains and light of Moon

For strong desire to hug tight

And answer: "Wait, I'm coming soon"

How find the words for feeling close?

Despite the distance, busy days,

You feel at a meeting in months so

Like parted only yesterday.

The words for wrinkles and grey hair?

That your eyes just not able see

The friend they see is young the same

With prankish smile and sparkling glee.

Real friends don't need to ask for help

Their jokes and critics with love done

Pure gold they are, those old good friends

Like a masterpiece they're checked by time.
