To a Friend Afar

The sun's far from me
yetI feel her warmth
every morn, every noon

The moon's far from me
yet she ligtens my way
night after night

The stars are far from me
yet they adorn my night
with rainbow of beauty

You are far from me
yet I feel your love
dominating the sky
of my very life
each passing moment

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
