That reach,
To help me find
Amity alter time,
Enough to assign
A brutal world
Grow less unkind…
Words I may find,
Could so discern
Amity of a kind,
Would so touch man
To finally be as one,
Hence to bind a lifetime!
Yesterday
Be a kind of guide
Told of being alive…
Today
Fate made to give,
That I derive
The gift of a day,
An extended stay
Held staying alive…
Tomorrow
Will be
If I survive,
So I’ve no mind
And far less time
For such concern,
That mayn’t arrive…
Thus the morrows
I’ll choose each so,
As tho a lifetime
That I’ve yet to live !
There are friends
You take a lifetime
To discover,
And such friends
Who make a lifetime
A discovery
Worth the journey…
Somewhere
In that between,
There is a friend
With such affinity,
As to instantly
Be a lifetime friend,
Infinitely…
I’ve such a friend!
ode to Pierre Ste.Marie,
such a friend.
