Creative Comrades

A friend reveals their true heart when you are feeling blue.
Their compassion cheers your spirit as they know the 'real' you.
They listen to you vent your anger when it consumes your day
To commiserate and reach out in a non-judgmental way.
A friend also is a treasure because your joy they love to share.
They help you keep your sanity when chaos you must bear.
Never forgetting your birthday or when holidays roll 'round.
You trust them to keep your secrets for they are honor bound.

A special poet friend helped teach me how to write in form
Her talent shines unwavering in words high above the norm.
Indeed she is a teacher, and English grammar her expertise.
She knows the earth, the seas, and skies beyond the Pleiades.
