A random phone call can be a godsend sometimes....


Out of the Blue



What a wonderful revelation,
When in times of woe and worry
You feel no-one understands
What you're going through
A real friend can just step in
Like a guardian angel
The very fact that they care
Can make you feel valid again
And somehow, less alone
Bringing tears of relief
And a sigh in your heart
Making the burden lighter
Without them even realising
How much they've helped
Just out of the blue....

I know the feeling, for same has happened to me, and what a godsend our friends are. I am glad for you. Nice poem reflecting the positives of human interaction.

Well said. Many times have I regretted not keeping in touch with old friends. There is nothing more affirming than to hear a familiar voice, especially from someone who knows us even better than we know ourselves. One thing you might consider (though the poem works very well in free verse) is adding more structure to it, like a couple of internal rhymes or some alliteration. Cheers.
