A Poem for a Friend of my Friend

Claudette

Somewhere,
in what others would call her fall from grace,
she found her freedom.

That choice was hers,
what others decide to remember,
is theirs.

The Universe calls us home,
and each of us will fall, from here to there,
and become more.

Look to the light,
believe in love,
remember in kindness.

Somewhere,
in what others should call her rise to grace
she exists in peace.

    Claudette this is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing it. I will read it again and again until it is engraved on my heart to bring out whenever the mood takes me. Your friend of a friend has inspired something very special.

      Thanks Osyth. I showed my friend today (I had been somewhat reluctant in case it wasn’t to her liking), and she was happy with my words. She also felt like me, that the choice was her friends to make, and that she is at peace.
