Daily Prompt: Friend

Call me a friend

If you haven’t felt bored with me;

If I’m always there for you;

If I am loyal to you;

If my presence makes you happy;

If I don’t shut you up but listen when you talk;

               If I respect you for who you are;

If I don’t take advantage of your friendship to me;

If I am hurt when you’re hurt

And happy when you’re happy;

If I lift you up when you are down;

If I don’t charge you for my time

Or for being there for you.

This post is in response to the daily prompt: Friend

Just A Stove

Just a stove

Yes, a stove

But within it lies warmth

The warmth of a burning fire

Or a hot water

That reaches out with care and love

Warming us up in our homes

Or we will be cold

Just a stove

Yes, a stove

But it gives us comfort in winter

Just a stove

Yes, a stove

But it’s our friend
