Noble Friend

Your face comes to me in that quiet place between consciousness and sleep Your grace and elegance shine in the light that flickers there My respect for you surpasses all feelings known to me I strive to touch you I look into your eyes in search of myself and find nothing to equal you Your magnanimity of spirit sets you apart and humbles me I am in awe of your generous acquiescence I long to truly know you You carry me though wind and rain through forest and over fell Through rivers deep with that which is unknown to you Your courage and strength comfort me in times of need How willingly you give of yourself I constrain you and bind you to my ways but knowingly do you no harm When I am at one with you I am at peace with myself My life with you is a journey without end I will always be there for you
