Contours of Friendship

Light and dark; shadows or bright 
Friendship lights up day and night. 
As pieces of plaster we’ve shaped and molded 
Rejoicing, mourning, as life has unfolded.
Unknowing, deliberately, undeniably we’ve left contours and impressions in each other’s lives through the years
Footprints, Laughter; wonder and tears 
Reflections of life, reflections of hope, reflections of friendship, weathering all.
Colors blending, mixing, molding 
Reaffirming, renewing and reshaping through it all 
Hands held, what needs smoothing has been smoothed
Minds eased, hearts soothed 
Light and dark; forever sisters of the heart.
