My Friend Poem by Alf Hutchison

My Friend

Rating: 5.0


Please walk a while with me my friend,
Along life’s beach which has no end,
Beside its oceans ebbs and flow,
That special place where true friends go.

Hold my hand and watch the sea,
And wonder why all birds fly free;
Your inner soul may ask you ‘why’?
Don’t shed a tear, no time to cry,

For God made every grain of sand,
He made it bold, He made it grand,
He made it thus, that you and me,
Might wonder for eternity.

If I love you, and you love me,
Then surely it was destiny,
That you and I should be as one,
To sail into that setting sun.

But for the while just be my friend,
My love for you will never end;
For time will set, of that I’m sure…
Our sails towards God’s heavenly shore.

As other poets have mentioned I took the walk with you and felt the ebb and flow of friendship divine. Under currents and bathing in God's Love throughout this beautiful piece of poetry. 10 Karin Anderson

A poem of love and hope that provides reassurance and comfort. Soothing words for the down-trodden and ailing. Well said!
