River of Friendship
Friends are like the steady
flow of a river running
with you across
every rock of life,
until the current
runs smoothly again.
Life makes the river
run rough and rapid.
Controling your emotions
with every swift
current.
Tossing you about.
Across the sharp jagged rocks.
Till you can see no tommrow.
Friends give a life line of hope.
Support until you are
treading in calm waters.
Advice when the rocks
sharp edges hurt you.
Love until that sharp
rock of pain is a small
pebble you dont even notice.
When you are drowning
and about to give
up on hope.
Tug that line of friendship.
You will be pulled in
and discover you was
love and needed.
They was there all along,
rescuing you from
the jagged edges of life
and rough water's.
Floating along
on smooth waves.
Thank God for
all their friendship.
Not giving up and
believing in you.
