The Best of Friends

Even the best of friends have trouble

Sometimes seeing everything eye to eye.

The multifaceted multiplicity

Pacing life's queer circumstance

Contrives, deprives and even connives

To offer more choices than we can bear.

Do we seek shelter to hide in the sand

Or ruffle our peacock feathers and prance

Around naked before God and company,

Playing the fool,

Breaking the rule,

Flaunting the school of traditional dance?

 

All the alternative options and choices,

Changing experiences, motion of growth.

Little wonder we cling to a constant,

Yearn for stability,

Pray for a rock to hold on to

When winds seer the night

With it's passionless kiss

Hiding from sight.

Who will be there when you turn on the light?

The best of friends never study the clock.
