To the far, far reaches
of the Galaxy,
the lowest depths
of the deepest sea ,
like a beacon shining
always there for me.
Praising, encouraging
the artist in me,
imbuing me with attributes
I never could see.
Beyond space
and spiraling time
grasping what others let go,
never allowing me to
succumb to the undertow.
Like a lighthouse
warning of the perilous shore;
stalwart, steadfast
so much more,
lending me wings
when mine fail
always the wind
behind my sail…
you are My Friend.
