Understanding friendship is an ongoing process
Even at this age, apologetic for my ignorance
I stumble and trip…
Drifting untethered:
Appearing as morning sun
Friendship most needed
The meanings of refinement
Include to purify, to reduce
To make more fine or polished
To make elegant or cultured
I have a mind programmed
To cultivate all the data, to gather all
That could ever
Possibly hold any kind of significance
At any point in the future
You could reasonably imagine
Sun warming maples
Reaching across an ocean
Friend’s calm hand steadies
Sun blends into moon
Friend’s love a shiny pebble
Held close and treasured
(About supportive comfort from a distant friend. For M.)

A dear friend is on a journey
They crossed an entire ocean
Hoping to pull themselves from another
Hero, trickster, what…?

In friend’s safe presence
The mask begins to dissolve
Sun feels warm again

Last week I learned the term “penguin pebbling”…
One of these days, I will hopefully find a way to properly honour you and what you have done for me.
Stream of consciousness (falling asleep) on considering a dear friend’s situation.
Hope you find your purpose
I know I am not your purpose, but if your great purpose is to help others, I know I am contributing, as there is no doubt I am stronger for your support
I’m grateful that I can be overwhelmed and still communicate with you
