Grow

Life is full of lessons. Some necessary for the moment and others that  recur  when necessary. I thought about years ago before my dearest friend Nancy passed and how wise she was and how much she had taught me. She use to say "when God closes door he opens a window." There have been so many windows, those of opportunity, windows of forgiveness, windows of happiness, windows of love and many more. As I find myself looking out the window of life, I think of you.


Outside my window
a view appears to me
and I see in it the treasure
that friendship brings.

Brightens the morning
with the gift of happiness
and brings with it the passion
in a moment of bliss.

Outside my window
a view appears to me
and I see in it the magic
that friendship brings.

Turns tears into sparkles
that glisten like stars
and a coldness into warmth
that comforts the heart.

Outside my window
a view appears to me
and I see in it the love
that friendship brings.

Touching my heart
like only you would know,
while sharing my pillow
and allowing our love
to grow.
