Sandra Haight Poet Quatrain

Stand By Me

Stand by Me


No matter what life sends to us
Be it tomorrow or today,
I can accept whatever comes
If you just stand by me, I pray.

Togetherness brings courage, hope,
You feel my strength and I feel yours…
When days are dark, no light to see
I know you will find open doors.

Please stand by me no matter what,
And let me know you surely would
Do as I would in your support
If bad times overtake the good.

And I will never be afraid
In knowing that you’ll always be
The one I lean on through my days...
Please, darling, always stand by me.

Andrea Dietrich January 16, 2015 at 8:16 PM I really like yours. I feel that if I had interest in this contest, I would probably write mine similar to how you did yours. I guess that is why I enjoy your poems so much. Sometimes they remind me of the way I write and I think we are often drawn to the kinds of writing that are like our own somewhat! Sandra Haight January 18, 2015 at 7:07 PM Thanks, Andrea. Yes, I notice often we are drawn to the same themes and styles of writing, and I also find I enjoy your writing because of that too! Thanks for stopping by. Hugs, Sandra
