The Rainbow of Friendship
Arced high above their heads
like a rainbow bridge of hope and joy
The aura of their love
vibrated the air with
the strong energy
of their friendship and commitment…
Buddy
Hey there buddy,
Ole’ pal of mine—
How’s your gizzard?
Hope you’re doing fine…
You’re my best friend —
Call my heart your home,
So I picked up this pen
To write you a poem
Thought it may seem silly
With rhyme and things
Wanted you to know how much joy
You, in my life, brings
Tapestry of Love
Our Friendship
is a beautiful cloth
woven by the dance
you there me here, me there you here
and connected
by threads of love
all these years
A tapestry of lightness
joy and gratitude
accentuated here and there
by a few small dark lines
for dramatic definition
_______
We are the weaving
not the loom
Friends of the Past
Friends
Far off in time or space
soften my heart still
With friendship’s grace
without uttering a word
nor treading my step
I can conjure their faces
and love them fully
with no contact ever
I will carry them always
Best Friends
We ride the tides
big waves and eddies
You and I best friends
through it all
You up, me down and the other way
a great connection
silent listening, hand extends
shouting or singing
You can count on me
even in the dark
And I know you are there
even with my eyes closed
