Listen to poem:

Sacred Friendship

I was surprised 
It was so nice
As strangers passed
I checked you twice

And there you were
My curly friend
A blessed human
As strangers wend

You turned and smiled
It was so sweet
My heart was warmed
Your hug complete

And as I sit
Reflect on this;
The lingering warmth
Of friendship bliss

Hits somewhere deep
From you to me
And back again
Though words so twee..

Could not explain
The depth of love
That knowing you
Calls from above

So curly friend
With eyes so blue
You are enough
And that is true 

May God's true kindness 
Ever be
That sacred space
Twixt you and me
