“A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.” - CS Lewis

A Jinjagoliath poem:
9th September 2020
---------------

Listen to poem:
Friends.. Take us just as we are; The rough and the smooth. Accepted and loved. With nothing to prove. Friends.. Need us too; Or that's what we hope. Ask yourself this: Are you sick, phat or dope? Friends.. Gather together in twos, threes or fours. Uplifting each other. House and hearts; Open doors. Friends.. Share the mountainous journey, the struggles, the views. Friends are honest and patient. All colours. All hues. Friends.. Whoever they are, whatever they're like; Be they short, wide or lanky, called Steph, Steve or Mike.. We should give as we take and be present, for sure.. ..as our friends are forever. And maybe.. some more.

Thought I would stop by and read your very first post here. This is such a sweet, thoughtful friendship poem. You have captured the true essence of friendship so beautifully and poetically. Friends make the world go round. Really enjoyed reading this delightful poem. I’m a tea drinker - put the kettle on! :):)

Oh, yes. We can say so much to friends. And we hope, of course, that we never lose them, even if we've had the occasional row.

I think Andrew, you are very correct, true friends can discuss and disagree and maintain mutual respect and (if we are lucky) love. Thanks for your comment :)
