You.........................you are there......here..........


alone.......................or
in a crowd of people.................maybe a few........maybe a gathering.......maybe a lot..........
family.........friends........acquaintances........strangers..........

on a beach...........in the country..........or in a city

on the street
in a car
at a corner
on the job
in a mall
at a party........... you are there

simple.......plain......sometimes almost anonymous — nothing special...........
unassuming
trusting — of all.......
actions and words..


Life-size...........................ordinary..................unadorned................
sitting...........................................................................................................................................
standing...............................................................................
..............thinking......dreaming......imagining......wondering......listening......
.......................................................................................
quietly listening — thoughtfully.........understandingly.........genuinely.............
..........................................................................completely...
see it........it’s in the eyes — it’s all in the eyes..................................


your words — heart-felt and open........
caring..........honest..........aware.........considerate..........sometimes many....
sometimes few.......

you are there......here..........



and you don’t even know......don’t even realize — couldn’t even imagine.......wouldn’t even cross your mind............

your eyes would question......there’d be a crooked smile......probably a little laugh — a slight shake of the head..........

your eyes..........an opened book
your arms.........an opened door
your heart.........an opened hand
your being........an opened gift


there are no poems or songs, no writings or articles, no magazines or books,
no paintings or sculptures, no movies or plays, no streets or highways,
no parades or commemorative days.


are you man or woman,
are you young or old,
are you black or white or all the colors in between..................
are you quiet or loud,
are you outgoing or reserve,
are you near or far or just always there...................
known a long time or short....................
....................
....................
....................
....................

Does the endless list really matter...........and though others may not.........
think a minute and.........
you will............know....................................................
you are a part of who I am........you..........
have made my life.............................


simple.....plain.....sometimes almost anonymous — nothing special
unassuming
trusting....ordinary....unadorned...



you are there......here...............

..............................in my mind.......in my heart.......in my soul........

You.........................you are there......here...................You are a Friend

You....................

You Are A Hero...............and will always be............to me
