Thank you My Friend

When life seems impossible

When troubles start to hound you

Whirlwind of emotions rock your boat

Surrounded by insurmountable odds

From no where a friend appears

Sighting your smoke signals

Being there when all have left

Silently wiping your tears

Supportive of your decisions

Advising, nurturing and defending

Handling you with delicacy

Beholding your sanctity

Trusting your insanity

Healing your wounds with compassion

Being your true companion

A friend is indeed,

A blessing in disguise

My Friend I thank you,

For being by my side.
