Our Closeness



"Friend, our closeness is this.
Anywhere you put your foot
feel me in the firmness under you.

How is it with this love,
I see your world and not you?"

   ~ Rumi

When you love your friend,  you feel their closeness and it is comforting to know that they are everywhere and anywhere. A best friend clicks with with your heart and your spirit.
   A good friend will do more than just be around when times are hard or when times are good.  A friend will "filter your blood", and bring you health, said  Walt Whitman in his poem "Song of Myself"

"I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love, 
If you want me again look for me under your boot-soles. 
You will hardly know who I am or what I mean,
But I shall be good health to you nevertheless..."
