Friendship Tanka Poems

What Is Friendship POTD

friendship can be great
looking when will I find you
will that be today
are you now looking for me
will our search go on and on


there you stood

A SAGE OMEGA REFLECTION

Live life not alone,
Friendship is essential
To the soul in need:-
Live in wonderful oneness
Of the onement of God’s love:-

Misery picks all;
We all have our time for

To My Shouldering Friend

You are a Simon
Of Cyrene; a supporting
Shoulder of crosses
I bear in this testing life;
You, a laborer of love:-

first love never dies

first love never dies
its flames rage loose in the wind
ashes smolder still
as fire rampages untamed
scorching fragile hearts blue-black

The View

seeking a new view
traveling on country roads
hoping to find what?
instead stumbling upon you
happy for the connection

Altruism

A tree stands alone
in a forest, full and green
bare branches twisted
Reach out ye blessed, fruitful...
Cultivate love and friendship

Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

For once, I will be
The one who waits for those of
Whom want my friendship
More than anything else or
At least want to have some fun.

the top prize

heartfelt gratitude
gift was unnecessary
thankful for her friend
there is a genuine hug
true friendship is the top prize

Rekindling an Old Friendship

Rekindled, our bond,  
Years lost, now paths interlace,  
Laughter blooms anew,  
Memories, like stars, align,  
Warmth in the cold space between.

Sheepish Smile

That sheepish smile
disarming a gruff poet
coyly offer hope

my Bridgewater seraphim
kick back wine like a sailor

 for K.C.

Protective Custody

Aquamarine waves
lap pristine rugged shorelines
casting call for beat
bohemic coral ballets
hip sandy beach applause

from my list.)

Rays of Sunshine

Whenever you think
Of me as ray of sunshine,
Filled with glowing glee…
Remember you’re all as bright,
Likes millions rays of sunshine.

Cafe Luna Leads

Ice cream cornet sounds
Ottowa freedom lovers
Human sleeping warm

In Love

When she fell in love,
All the world for her was dull,
His path she would gove,
Her heart throbbing like a gull,
Thinking 'bout him was her lull.
