The meaning of Joy

When true spirits of friendship unite,
Then there is no agenda,
And words flow as streams babbling with laughter, with tales
Of experience, of fears, of direction, bringing to the table loved
Ones, offspring, decisions of future and giggled memories of
Recognisable past. Menus ignored and forgotten as hearts warm
With familiarity, with the assurance of the ties that bind still firmly
In place. For the years of friendship power us forward, but for just
This time there is reaffirming, an assurance, an oasis in uncertainty
A rock, formed from layers and layers of sedimentary trust, and
We have feasted in the moment on the warmth of sustaining loyalty
And when evening is done, an overwhelming sense of joy,
A soul’s inner smile at the recognition of the rarity of
complete connection.

I absolutely love that last line. It brings it all home with such, such, hmmmm...wow, hard to explain for me.
Just sums it up brilliantly.
My best friend passed away in January. Miss her a lot. Cherish that time while she's still here.
As always, love your writing and wo, you've been posting a lot lately and I like it! |
