Worthy of My Friends

Through path and switch with company skipping along the winding road I pass food and accompany with he whom life seldom bestowed

                    Me ,Tony ,Kerney

To walk the roads of soul strewn streets

with all thoughts we know of living

Leaves us lonesome for others feats

finds sharing to come from giving

 

Through path with switch and company

skipping along the winding road

I pass food and accompany

with he whom life seldom bestowed

 

In those who share my few comforts

won't you join me in life's amends

For as long as I walk this earth

may I be worthy of my friends

Author's Note

To all who have known the trials of a life beset with tribulation. I would just like to say the things that make life worth living are not to be found in pursuit of wealth. I never remembered anyone fondly for the station they held in life.True wealth for me is held within the hearts of those I have loved and who dared to love me.

pretty cool sentiments well said Tate...glad you are posting .. i have missed your presence here ... i have seen the pic of you three before but the poem is a little different isn't it? the humility in your closing lines is a beacon sir ... i think to be worthy of our friends is not typically our first thoughts ... at least in the beginnings of friendships ... your note is also very inspiring .. :)

Hello Gene thank you I suppose I have seen enough of death these past few years. I presently have my brother in law trying to pass away in intensive care. The events of these last years have reaffirmed my feelings that love of others is the only thing that matters

[Einstein Noodle]

Tate Morgan,
:Worthy of My friends" was a lovely reminder of our need for one another and how much we are fit to enjoy the companionship of our fellow human beings. The song really works too!!
