FRIENDS

Familiar
Reminiscent
Intimate
Engaged
Nurturing
Devoted
Supports.
No matter the distance
Near or far
Whatever the
Meeting place
Or reason
Pick right back up
Where you last left off
Safe to be you
Limitations and strengths
Both understood
Accepted
And celebrated
Shared experiences of the past
Enhancing the present
There to shine light
On the entanglements and woes
With laughter and joy
Always abundant
In the connection
That endures
the lifetime.
