FRIENDS IN LIFE
Friends in life are like~
Pebbles washed smooth by waves on the beach~
At first a little ruff around the edges~
Ending up priceless each.
Other Friends are like~
Leaves which flourish green to only shrivel turning brown~
Cast into the wind~
Departing haphazardly as another will be found.
Often friends are like~
The baby birds that swell too big for the nest~
We out grow them~
As we must put that part of life to rest.
Many friends are like~
Acquaintances lined up like the pickets on the old white fence~
There can be countless of them~
But never is deep emotions spent.
While others are friends that are like~
Surprise souls that ignite when they fleetingly meet~
There is an unusual knowing~
That the spirit has already met at the LORDS ALMIGHTY FEET.
There are friends we can see~
Coming from buds that blossom in the sun~
As various stages happen~
We know to be patient for these special ones.
Friends that stick around are like~
Rocks that are moved slowly by the frost~
In our life time they are our brothers and sisters~
We will protect with any cost.
Some friends are like~
The cliffs you constantly climb threatening to fall off~
They are our challenges~
With many battles friendly fought.
Some friends are like~
The devil in sheep’s clothing~
At some point the relationship has to end~
Leaving you to pray to stop your hate and loathing~
Your sainthood you must defend.
The best type of friend is like~
A precious gift from GOD~
Never ending no matter distance or space~
Which you keep in a decorative life long pod.
Of course there is no better friend in life than~
The friendship you have with the LORD~
This is a friendship you will always need~
To loose this you can not afford.
