Poem – Friends

 

In the tapestry of life, they appear,

Guiding us with hearts so clear,

Friends, the beacons of truths that are trying to be,

Unveiling what others have failed to see.

 

With kindness and honesty they tread,

Through the shadows, where secrets are spread,

Unmasking the veils of dysfunction and pain,

Their gentle words, a healing rain.

 

Gifted souls, with treasures untold,

Their wisdom and love, a sight to behold,

Freely they offer, without asking in return,

In their presence, our spirits truly yearn.

 

In moments of trouble, when skies turn gray,

Friends stand beside us, come what may,

They hold our hands, steady and strong,

In the face of adversity, they remind us we still belong.

 

Though our paths may diverge, winding and long,

Friends never falter, their loyalty forever strong,

They let us journey, and find our own way,

Yet remain close by, watching night and day.

 

For safety and solace, they continue to provide,

In the shelter of friendship, we have safety to confide,

With friends by our side, we conquer the strife,

Together they help us navigate the tapestry of life.

 

So cherish these gems, both precious and rare,

For friends are blessings beyond compare,

In their embrace, we find solace and mirth,

Guiding each other, through this wondrous earth.
