Finding Home in the Heart of a Friend

Somewhere

a resting place

at home

in the heart

of a friend

life's journey

can be weary

at times

its going

and coming

froth with toxic

wastes of worry

loneliness

and pain

and the question

left is

will there be an end

to all of these?

The other day

a friend online

lost all hopes

and is going back

to mom

and i told her

its great!

Now is the time

for her to claim

responsibility

for her dear life

for her wellbeing

and happiness

and then she asked

are still there

such things?

So i simply told her

to take rest

and be quiet

and listen keenly

to tha still small voice

of a Friend's

assurance

of love and care

within her.

And i bade her

love, peace

and joy

as I waited

for my next moment

to rest for a while

and to my God

and to myself

just be my own

best friend.
