The Acceptance

A true friendship when found is a precious gift to receive. We may find it in a soul mate or a relative of some stranger we've met on the street. I believe we know who that person is when we ask ourselves, who is it we would turn to tomorrow if we were in desperate need. Who is it that we know we can depend on to always be there.


Poem Artwork

The Acceptance

You creep into my heart and soul,
Like nothing I've felt before,
I felt your touch and saw your smile,
Yet I did not close the door.

I held it opened as I welcomed you in,
And shared all my dreams with you,
The dreams I've hidden far away,
Secrets I hope one day would come true .

I found in you a sincere trust,
That's found in only a few,
A gentle and caring heart,
The kindness I've accepted from you.

You're there throughout the day,
When I need a listening ear,
You always seem to have the right words,
That I wait patiently to hear.

A smile you seem to always share,
The truth from you I find,
As I felt your touch and saw your smile,
I knew you had to be kind.

Yet at times I still shy away,
It's that something inside of me,
A whisper that says I'm still unsure,
If I'm accepted by others you see.

Great write that deals with acceptance of others regardless of the warts that we display.

What a beautiful poem and friends like these are few and far between yet some how God has always seen to it that such a person passes through my life at a time of need. I think their angels. Lady J

Is there an ideal person. Perhaps not, but there is always one that is very near to our expectations. However we have to be sure of ourselves too. Victor

"As I felt your touch and saw your smile,

Lovely sharing Rose!

Rose,
My sweet friend, never doubt yourself, if you accept who you are, others will also. We must always remember that, love and acceptance of oneself, will shine and other's will do the same in return. I accept you for who you are, now say that in the mirror and believe it in your core!

Peace, Love, and Light,

Sometimes friendship comes when least expected and is more valuable and treasured more than any other type of relationships. Lovers can be found on a moments notice, husbands and wifes in this day and age don't always last, children though always loving grow up and move away or get caught up in their own lives... Best Friends though are forever and should never be doubted...

Acceptance by others feeds our ego and makes us feel wanted.
