Ablaze

[for the many

moments

beneath the stars

with the best

friends

a girl could

ever

dream of having

:}]

A friend is,

a friend does,
a friend loves,

just because.

Any where,

any time,

without reason,

without rhyme.

With hearts ablaze

we dance and sing,

with war and peace

in unspoken remembering.

With wine and yeast

our stories are paired,

and our table is laced

with the moments we’ve shared.

With fire we test the night,

the minute hand and the bottle passing seconds every round -

laughter and tears resist rest, we fight -

but sloppy soldiers sleep on this solid ground.

To the day we wake

to ride as one and for all:

flying high over land and lakes

we soar together, free to fall.

It is a friend that says

“I'll scratch yours,”

and stays, passing the waves

of time, sound, and sun on rocky shores.

With hearts ablaze

we dance and sing,

with war and peace,

in unspoken remembering.

Without reason,

without rhyme,

any where,

any time.

A friend is,

a friend does,

a friend loves,

just because.
