each friend

Each friend represents a world in us,
a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.
~ Anais Nin


i love how one friend can feed my hunger for warmed olives
growing on the sandy spanish soil, in summer's bold sun

when another friend can remind me of rows and rows
of fragrant lavender fields, buds of french blue peace

then comes my upbeat head- in- sunshine orange grove
girlfriend who looks for prayers between the citrus and the pith

hey there- roaring red rock passion, uplifting the flat island
woman i am- to heights of canyons grand, with dry swirls

of magical wind, barreling through the canyon floor
morning time allowing us to rise to heights again
