Friendships Value

by Michaelw1two Inspired by the word works of Fox Poole A close friend is silver, a true friend holds heart’s gold; only such friends stay with you, everyone else turns cold; memories carry us forward, filling lives with joy; building bridges between hearts, that some may seek to destroy; to that one good friend, who caused me to be blessed; your compassion, always available, for moments when I needed rest; your honest love and kindness, life’s ability to ease and console; making me seem better, uplifting my troubled soul; your encounters bring me profits, my cheerfulness chimes real and sincere; causing my moods to shimmer directly, this is friendship I hold so dear; this earth is limited and finite, likewise this void of cyberspace; but know daily, that I lift you up, to impart into you, god’s grace; heaven’s day then, is that paradise, as down here comes to an end; our time, the greatest of treasures, made in you, my soul's fate found friend.

Aloha Anne Lise... Thank you for these very personal comments... Friendship is a value which seems to have disappeared in our society... Yes, there are close acquaintances... but true, blue to the core friendships are rare indeed... and to have a soul found friend remains the true quest for US all... all of the best from this life, to you, and all of your relations... Michael.
