A Friend For All Seasons



She wants to be
Everything good
To everyone.
She is many things:
A daughter, a sister,
A friend,
A wife, a mother,
Depending on the season.
She looks for the good, the love;
Receiving and giving it in turn.
Learning from mistakes,
Growing.
Of all the love she feels,
She wants to feel God's love for her
In every season.
Two friends—sisters
They call, visit, chat, teach.
Aware of changes, trials, sickness,
Achievements, successes.
They care through every season.
She kneels and asks.
She stays and feels
Then acts on those feelings.
They’ve gotten her this far.
They’ll bless her in every season.
To be a friend for all seasons.
