Love’s Lament


To have found a friend
So close to heart, mind and soul
To be snatched away
*
I had a friend’s ear
So close and fleeting it was
Can you hear me now?
*
Was it the distance
That made the hearing loss so
Or the nearness now?
*
Distant shores apart
With unspoken fairytales
Now a cup half filled
*
What holds back your voice
Is it pride or predjudice
That stops the meet cute?
*
A single voice sounds
A whispered welcome to home
Must be face to face
*
New discoveries
High roads and low roads still meet
With friends hand in hand
*
Happiness is near
You must take a step to it
Joy is guaranteed
*
It’s a leap of faith
Sure footing to Avalon
Dreams of joy fulfilled
