Soul upon Soul

Somewhere in the deepest recesses of our soul
  needs arise for fellowship
soothing words and love
 
  I remember a time long ago
when my tiny hands grasped a circle
  standing on the street not understanding;

before the Internet and cell phone communication
  around the globe only blocked by the seas
hand in hand a circle ran around the globe
  for a purpose
for which I remember not.

  Today the circle is felt every day
as instead of hand in hand does a circle run
  around our globe, but
soul upon soul.

  Friends that never touch
touch each others lives deeper than they can imagine.

  Golden friendships lift me up
friendships I can never be without
  love so deeply intertwined
my heart will always be there for them.

  Whether or not these friendships will be hand in hand
I do not know...
  but the memory of that circle
lives in me so strongly
  connected together we stand strong
sharing love, pain, and friendship

  Praising God for this gift
He granted to us
  the ability
of friendships
  soul upon soul.

    True! Very true indeed! I have countless friends here at AP, and I know they feel the same about me as I do about them. You are one of them, "soul" sister.

    I would call these relationships, lasting friendships. Excellent work! The flow is effortless. What a touching work of poetry. I wish you well in the challenge!


    All My LOVE ♥

    as tears befall from my soul your message speaks profoundly true as memories enlighten our spirits as so often we come across friends that the bonds that tie us together last for eternity with true promise and compassion - yes there may be obstacles that cross paths but like a circle has no end in sight. thank you for sharing in the celebration and many blessings always xxx
