My Friend

A calm moment in the night, at peace with all.

You will find Yours

and I will find Mine

Each in our own Time 

There is no need for Convincing

No point in Insisting

Because all moves when it needs Too

So why am I Writing

Mostly for me to Capture

Where my Heart and Mind are Now

Does not matter where you're Going

Matters less where you've Been

For we are all going to the same in the End

So take a sip of Tea

Or perhaps a nip of Gin

And I'll take just what I Need

If our paths cross on this Journey 

I will Smile larger Because

Together we will always be More

And if you think I'm Nosy

Or you feel I'm Imposing

It's because I know I've known you Before

So don't worry about me Friend

We'll be together Again

One day, you too will see it the Same

I really enjoy this piece Healing Star.

This poem has a really nice sing-song kind of rhythm to it. I found my head tilting left and right along with it on the second and third read. I especially like fifth stanza "So take a sip of Tea/ or perhaps a nip of Gin/ And I'll take just what I need."

I do have a few questions though. Was the rhyming at the end of some lines and not others intentional? I wonder if you were trying to convey something through that. Also, was capitalizing the final word in each line intentional as well? I read the last word in each line and I'm not sure if it was supposed to spell out something or give greater meaning to the whole piece.

Overall, I enjoyed the work very much. I look forward to more writing from you!

Hey James, thanks for reading. It was kind of just a mood that came over me on this one. I wanted to say the words that came to me without paying that much attention to the Rhyme. The right words just seemed important. The last word capitol and sometimes meaningful words capitol is just my style, always has been the last three years, since this amazing thing happened to me. Ancestors and energies come to me and they write through me. This one was just a warm friendly feeling that came to me, like an old friend dropping by to say high, and maybe that's just who it was, an old friend that wanted to stop by. But also I wanted to express getting along, not judging you know, allowing everybody there way, cause we all have our own ways. And sometimes I think some people might think I'm preaching but I'm not, I am spiritual, and I express my way of being spiritual but I try to accept everybody's own way, kind of want to let my readers know that. Cause I think no matter where we are at, in the end we are all going to find ourselves in the same place, all together all one, all the same, though we will still have our own ways. Hope you will keep readin', try this one, Your Journey Too. http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/gfrisk21/1285213/
