Mutuality In Friendship
Our friend was unflappable,
regardless of what happened.
She handled every trial
smoothly—without weary sighs.
We considered her our guide,
and she coached us through hard times,
like a well-trained therapist,
this unique friend we cherished.
We saw how focused on self
we’d been when SHE asked for help—
advice! Now we’re equal, each
with strength all the others seek.
