Although miles apart I sense her pain It washes over me like new fallen rain Her heart is weary on this night I will take up the slack and ease her plight All she has to do is tell me now I will always be here someway somehow To be the strength when she needs it most The most accommodating and gracious of hosts Please give me the chance at last to be All of those things she sees in me The goodness and mercy I carry in my heart For this special one never will part It is endless like the deep blue ocean Rocking her gently in slow motion I cradle her in arms filled with love Thanking God and the heavens above For bringing our paths together here Where a friendship will flourish for many years She is a lady of amazing grace and style Whose love will touch many if only for a while In my heart she’ll peacefully slumber this eve Wrapped in the blanket my words shall weave Never having to worry or feel alone I will be her very own touchstone ---------------------------------------------------- Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Ahhhhhhh...*sighing* "It is endless like the deep blue ocean Rocking her gently in slow motion..." She is very lucky to have you...Beautiful... I love the time and in between the calm inside me in the space where I can breathe... Sarah McLachlan |

Amazing that women will reach out and cause friendships to last forever and be one another's touchstone... and guys just have "buds"... this is beautiful, and I will send it to MY touchstone... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Lone Wolf, I want to say that I love this poem. Contrary to what some of the women on here believe, I, a male, have three friends that I feel this way toward. Two male friends and one female friend. They know I feel this way and know that I shall be there should they ever have want or need of me. Wonderful portrayal of these feeling and devotion. Again I love this piece. The White Wolf |

 I don't know, so I can't tell you? But, your mark on her life will surely prove your friendship golden. God Bless You, Bob <>< |
