Premium Member 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 looking
oh you came out of no where
what a big surprise
our friendship is a flower
fun and laughs are everywhere


our fun and laughs turn
it all goes so very wrong
hurt and pain from words
tears running like a river
why did our friendship go bad


Premium MemberA 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 it,
And its survival:-
Praise God for his healing grace,
And divine wisdom and guidance:-

Premium MemberTo 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

                                      Inspired by life tree
                               The Christmas tree, fir or pine
                                         Garden of Eden
                                   Decor, mix of new and old
                                       Tradition is evergreen

                                          A star at the top
                                    Sing along to Jingle Bells
                                       Glitter reflects light
                                  Wish you a Merry Christmas
                                   celebrate with love and joy

Premium MemberAltruism



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

Premium MemberGood 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.

Premium Memberthe top prize

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

Premium MemberRekindling an Old Friendship

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

Premium MemberSheepish Smile

That sheepish smile
disarming a gruff poet
coyly offer hope

my Bridgewater seraphim
kick back wine like a sailor

 for K.C.

Premium MemberProtective Custody

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



(This poem made the first PS Anthology, but disappeared 
from my list.)

Premium MemberRays 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.

Premium MemberCafe 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.
