A Friend

A friend is a mirror...reflecting our soul,
Shining back with a grace only we can know.
Through the course of a lifetime
And beyond all the years,
A friend is one who shares laughter
As well as shed tears.
Broad smiles from the good times
Seeing humor in the bad,
Allowing us to grow from challenges
That each one of us has had.
Enjoying each other right from the start,
All the laughing and crying
Duly come from the heart.
But the laughter prevails...removing all fear,
Healing the mind, heart and soul
Year after year.
Friends....
United by chance? By Unworldly Hands?
Tis not for us to know, nor even understand.
For a friend is a mirror...reflecting our soul,
Shining back with a grace only we can know.
