I have a good friend
and that I've been told
is the best thing to have
while we're growing old.
To have of a family
Through good times and bad
to be there when needed
when life seems quite mad.
There'll always be someone
around who will share
a burden or two
or a laugh here and there.
But what of soul's longing
and heart's aching need,
when lonely the hours
where does the road lead?
It winds, it meanders
seems not to go straight,
the signposts point onwards,
towards one's own fate.
Of what does fate bring
can we ever sit back
for a time in surrender
to see what we lack
How can we better
this state of affairs
there are millions of theories
but few of us dares,
To live life full of loving
with courage and strength
to reach out and touch
to extend our full length.
To know and to face
disappointment and pain,
to fall on our faces
and get up again
and look for the rainbow,
to reach for the sun,
to take a few chances,
before day is done.
In truth, introspection
is good for the soul,
Lessons are needed
for us to be whole,
And daily we look
around us and see,
That Blessings ARE shared,
by you and by me.
