...your give all the beauty of friendship...one to sail upon...when the waters of unsteadiness...are unbalanced.
beautiful Olita...

An open-hearted view of the double-sided coin which is sincere friendship, Olita. Friends are great for sharing the GOOD times with, but most certainly they are MORE than worth their weight in gold when the going is rough. I love your unconditional promise and declarations contained in this poem and understand that you must be a very well-grounded and loving person to be able to so wholeheartedly and whole-mindedly commit yourself in this way. A friend in deed! I think your delightful, open-faced Biog photograph says it all! Both strength and and a servant-heart comes through your lovely lines. TY Kate xx

Beautiful write, Olita; brava!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :D

Thanks for posting "When You Need A Friend". I especially enjoyed "Remember I am a Friend." My husband & I coined ffl, which means friend for life. It's true friends come at a special time and at any time.
