Corners And Partners Poem by John Sensele

Time draws us closer
If we salute social partners
Who bless our lives, eliminating any stressor
From the corners

Where time creates quality time
To share
To climb to the prime
Level of the care

We disperse and dispense
In the interaction
Whose essence
Consolidates affection

In words, in actions
Deliberately meant
To invite benedictions
In every second spent

Strengthening ties
Within friendships
Where lies and spies
Sail in the opposite direction in ships

Whose poison
Far from the centre
Where treason
Gets no chance to enter

In a bid to plant seeds
Whose germination
Multiplies feeds and weeds
That trample affection

Underfoot
Increasing the chasm
Whose right or left foot
Sparks a spasm whose sarcasm and cytoplasm

Weakens bonds
Meant to grow from strength to strength
As evil absconds
To its full breadth and length

Signifying the rebirth
A partnership
Deserves beyond the birth
It witnesses in discipleship and fellowship

As every chime
Time sounds
Spurs a climb
To the next relationship rounds on gregarious grounds.
