Paul In His Friendship

Paul in friendship is my bright lamp within darkness Inspiring my Muse to rejoice seeing beauty everywhere Seeking answers to life's mysteries and finding God Reaching for the stars, my best friend, stalwart and true Supporting, encouraging without question or rebuke Strength making steps bolder and never faltering Keeping me towards the next mountain to be climbed. With faith and love the impossible can be achieved No dream unfulfilled nor mountain too high to ascend. Paul setting the pace towards the Promised Land Leading me safely through buffeting purple storms Across sweltering deserts to cool refreshing waters. In his friendship giving purpose to life and hopes Forging with compassion the poet I have become.
