An Ode To Friendship Poem by Catherine Habbie
An Ode To Friendship
On international friendship day
I cement my friendship with you
In bricks of stone and mortar alone
Are not strong castles made
They need a little ounce of trust
And loads of honesty too
They rely on hours of silent suffering
For someone loved and lost
When words begin to fail them
But friendship never rusts
It thrives on forgiveness
Kindness is its middle name
It seeks to create a new world
Where care and sin go bust
This land is for souls
Like minded and true
When with a friend
You need no one but you
So this ode to friends today
Is for all to share and say
I am my best friend
When I am with you
True friend you are when
Long shadows break through
The essence and intricacies of friendship are aptly portrayed in the poem. A beautiful creation written in persuasive poetic expressions with conviction. Thanks for sharing Catherine and do remain enriched.
