A FRIEND INDEED

there is little we can do
this night let it wait until
the morn, I see your weary
head sense your yawn.

gone is that which has
passed looking back will
ever last frozen over or
crystal glass rest your mind
tonight is kind.

we all can see and yet are
blind when faced with which
we searched to find.

lay your burden by my side
soaked with tears that you
have cried alone inside,
rest your mind tonight is kind.

close your eyes and fall to
slumber where all your troubles
fall asunder tomorrow we shall
wake until then let it wait.

'bout time!

Zigs, I have been worried about you, plenty of emails and pm's but no new work, but hey!, you're back and you haven't lost that touch of yours. I love your style and word usage, and this sits highly with your best. Clever rhyming style too, I missed it the first time around, but I was reading and watching the World Cup at the same time, so that's my excuse. Almost a chorus dropped subtly in the middle there too: we all can see and yet are blind when faced with which we searched to find. Good to have you back on the forum, good poem, good rhythm, it's like you haven't been away.

Zigs, I'm only watching this boring game because I have France in the sweepstake at work! Obviously the fact you were cheated by the 'hand of God' goal against you, I just know you're cheering on Uruguay! Lol!

Double WoW!

Ziggy, this so great. Very caring and touching and brought tears to my eyes. Like the saying goes, “Sleep on it and tomorrow brings new light”. Actually Zigs, I made up this quote from a part quote. What do you think? Not bad eh, but not as good as your wonderful words. Xena

tomorrow we shall wake, until then let it wait

i love this ziggy always best to face daunting problems after a night's sleep had a little trouble understanding what you were saying with 'looking back will ever last frozen over or crystal glass' but then, that's me - a bit thick sometimes love judy http://www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/TwentyMyPrettyPonies.html

hello

hi and thank you for the comment the lines you picked out which is "looking back will ever last frozen over or crystal glass " well the first part looking back will ever last , simply means how we could spend the rest of our lifes looking back at where life and it`s trials has taken any one of us and "frozen over or crystal glass" as a follow on line means those events that we ponder on some as clear as yesterday in our minds as i mean as clear as glass crystal glass,while other memories are less clear in our passing view on it as to be frozen over,
