For Mends the Hoop

I've found something,
something I thought I'd lost
something I use to protect
no matter the cost...

In trying to hide it away,
I slipped most everyday
trying so hard to hold on,
I'd lost it a small bit each day...

Yet when most I needed it,
It came right back to me
My friend Mends the Hoop had it
and she gave it back for free...

What I had lost was my heart,
my soul, my reason, my will
but she had it all along
and if I slip...she'll have it still...

Thank you my friend for being there,
thank you for caring so much
thank you for all that you do and say
and thank you most...for your touch...

There are people who walk through this world
with blinders and ear plugs intact
there are people who are shallow and
care nothing but for watching their backs...

But if you are sincerely searching
and looking for nothing in return
someone will sneak up beside you
and the life you forgot will return...

Some people have gifts that are fancy
some, more expensive than worth
but when true friends meet "again"
there is no question of worth...

Some people have a way with words,
some with money and fashion
yet there are few in this world who hold
worth, truth and compassion...

There are those who speak and do and
talk, yet know not what they say,
then there are those who seek with
heart to change and find the way...

It takes courage and heart and compassion
to change that which we see
and few are those who "gift" it all
and give it all for free...

Thank you from the bottom of my heart "The friend that was"
