Help from Our Friends

Refreshing Rain sits beside Withering Rose inquiring if He might settle around Her. She gladly accepts the offer He bestows, a more precious blessing She could not prefer. She felt the nourishment from petals to toes, grateful to Him for His gift of life transfer. Sometimes we need a little help from our friends for gracious compassion and kindness it lends.
