just friends II

just friends II is obviously a follow-up poem, following in the greAt tradition laid by great hollywood blockbustiers making USD-churning out *Rocky, Rocky 2, Rocky 3 and R4? "See liau liau, lol!"
* This does not refer to mGf Sdr Ahirudin Attan wit' whom I collaborate sometimes; wished sometimes vve had Steven Spielberg's dollar spinners like Star Warz instead of media-spinning, eh, RockyBru?

just friends II

AS TIME GOES BY,
friendshp waxes and wanes
like the port dickson tides that wait not
for thee and me, poor mousey desi

but we do have time/dime for tea
tehtarik just top up wit' wit dan kambing
what can be more lifting?
yes, rocky, i enjoy thy company
badder if you throw in some kaya
on top of three layers of skippy
and my bread -- how about honey?

what's more exhilarating?

than banter with the likes/dislikes of
zorro, deanobeano and wow! aweOFhelen2
soon AP adds-on like art DrinksOnDeHouse harun?
buttered by donplaypray...
creamed yet by other sweetspirits
ah, sweet surrender to
heavenly mateship

e'en as temporal as redhead beach tides
sometimes they hold for that tender moment
the saccahrine swet sunset
with music
orchestrated by the roaring waves
bashing more than *rocky
downing whiskey on the rocks?

You are the light in my darkess hour



Just Friends

A generous spread on a round table
Juicy suckling piglet, roast to a golden sheen
Oyster-sauced kailan, teased with Chinese wine
Healthily washed down with vintage Le Gordon Bleu

But what's all these food and drinks worth?
If not for the boisterous crowd
Of back-slapping mates dating back a decade
Growing richer and wiser with passing years
Like good old wine, Chines or French

So cheers to hearty and sincere company
The meal might just as well be mere entree
Or one main course
Or just desserts

It matters not really the dish
What's really cooking, whetting
Is your presence, old chap,
Camaderie
Among just
Friends

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.


When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that
Person.

When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need
You have expressed.

They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with
Guidance and support,

To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.

They may seem like a godsend and they are.

They are there for the reason you need them to be.

Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,

This person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an
End.

Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.

Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.

What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire
Fulfilled, their work is done.

The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.





Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has
Come to share, grow or learn.

They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.

They may teach you something you have never done.

They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy..

Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.


LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons,


Things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional
Foundation..

Your job is to accept the lesson,

Love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other
Relationships and areas of your life.

It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.


Thank you for being a part of my life,

Whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.
