A Friend
13 December 2011 | 
Author Where is a friend among mortals?
The six letter word;
elusive yet fondly used.
I have searched through the ages;
like a shadow with human flesh,
I find not.
Iniquity adorned with a grin;
Lonely and treacherous,
I fathom this abode.
Someone to rely on;
like a river in the desert,
I find not.
Â
A roar echo as laughter;
king of the jungle a sheep present.
Venom disguised as milk,
a graceful hand to hold;
like oxygen in Mars,
I find not.
Â
Spear served as turkey drumstick
Strife resident in the heart’s bunker;
mischief on auction sale.
A life bereft of pretence;
like summer in the arctic,
I find not.
Â
Truth scarce to behold
self as billboard display.
The keeper of a brother;
like love in hell,
I find not.
Â
Serenity resides with a friend,
integrity a way of life,
gentility like sunray beam,
kindness his trademark,
truthfulness the meal he serves.
Love is his name.
A true and trusted friend;
Like bliss in heaven,
I find in Jesus.
Â
                                             In His grip,

Nothing could be further from the truth. Among mortals “friend” is a six letter word often used but very few know about it. But in Jesus we’ve an unfailing friend.
