The Flower Of Friendship Poem by jackie compton

The Flower Of Friendship

Rating: 5.0


IS not friendship a flower that grows.
In the fertile hearts and soul of two people.
It is planted in the warm soil of human kindness

There it takes roots and sprout from a seed into a plant.
That grows freely in the wild of life.

Never to be picked by the hands of a florist, and place
in a window with a price tag attached.

when the thunderstorm of conflict rain down doubt.
It's stem of loyality bends, but never breaks.
when the winter chills of hardtime blows in.
It's cold rain seems to wash away the closeness

It is the spring buds of reconciliation.
that reassure the survival of the plant.
That blooms into the flower of friendship

A well articulated, nicely penned poem written with insight to drive home the conviction of the poet. A friend indeed is almost the equal of a loving family. Your use of appropriate similes to capture the essence of the piece is quite appropriate and lovely. Kudos! Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
