You know who you are. As we leave the month of love, I hope you know that once my friend, always my friend. Through blood, sweat and tears, rainy days and Mondays as they say, we are forever floating together on a sea of memories. Thank you. I am grateful.
I’ve got you
– a love poem for friends
I want to tell you about how I love you.
Like the little girl who whispers her longings to her cat and she mews back –
“I love you too.”
I want to tell you about how I need you.
Like the wind softening the rays of the sun on my neck as it blows through my hair making me feel young.
I want to tell you about how I miss you.
Like a memory traveling away in the distance of fog and clouds only to reappear as a story to share and hold.
I want to tell you about how I touch you.
Like a hand reaching for a flower in the garden as the bees buzz and the breezes tickle my nose in delight.
I want to tell you how I appreciate you.
Like my aching heart longing for the gentle touch of a friend when I need courage or support and suddenly you are there.
I want to tell you how I know you.
Like the way you eat vanilla ice cream on your cherry pie at the summer picnic and feel such joy in the act.
I want to tell you it’s okay to be afraid sometimes. Like the tumbling in our gut when we think of the pain the world is in, but I know it will be okay because
-I’ve got you.
My love and appreciation always,
Cindi
