My Heavenly Friend

By AR

If you leave where will I be

If you weren’t here what would I see

When I look at you

I see a person of all one could be

And when I’m your presence

I feel that paradise is upon me

When I need you you’re always here

I can’t find the words because none can compare

But for a friend in me I hold you dear

Because you’re an individual

Of much love, wisdom, and patience to share

A good friend is hard to find

But God bless me with one that defends

And for that blessing alone
It’s time I start giving mine

And show a light of my own that shines

Thank you my heavenly Friend

    Your poem is a heartfelt tribute to a cherished friend, blending gratitude and admiration. It beautifully expresses the deep bond, the feeling of paradise in their presence, and the sense of being blessed by their love, wisdom, and support. The final lines are especially touching, as you acknowledge the importance of giving back and sharing your own light. It’s a lovely reflection on friendship and divine connection. Wonderful poem!
