"Friends Are Like Rocks"

© Jerilyn Boerhave, aka jer

Some fall into your life,
some get kicked around,

But each rock we chose
had a moment in our life.

Some get saved because they're special,
others we throw as far as we can.

Some we pick up to just throw it away,
others we choose to be the perfect rock
at that special moment of the day.

To see a perfect rock to skip across the ocean
is like a gift only a friend can share alone.

You were the rock in my life
as you skipped across the water,
the simple moment of joy
I can only share within myself.

          As I watch that rock skip,
I can't help but count each skip,
like the blessing of our friendship.
