Have you ever wanted so much
to reach out and help a friend?
To touch someone inside the heart
The way that they have done?
Do you ever get the feeling
that someone you love is lost
someone so dear and important
you would go no matter the cost
Do you ever wish to hug them
be there to hold a hand
pick them up, dust them off
help them from the sand
If you’ve ever really cared
about someone so deep
think of friends as seeds sown
and the benefits we reap
Always there
always here
always time to listen
always ease your fears

What a sincere and sweetly worded piece of prose. You are such a special angel sometimes that all your naughtiness from other times must be forgiven by anyone who knows you 🙂

Definitely not an angel. More of a gargoyle. 🙂

Oh my dear Ionia, I promise to stay this way forever, but only with your encouragement has my poetry gone from ‘roses are red’ to what it is now. Without you and some of my other wordpress friends, I’d never have had the courage to write (and publish/post) poetry. So I thank you for your support and encouragment.
