Surprised by Friendship

From the window seat
I watched the unmovable rock outside
Forever transformed to the podium of presence

Two Crows it took
Side-by-side cawwing their message
Reminding of many times
My daughters stepping up
To announce themselves to the world

And that rock turned to confidence

Like that rock
I watched an idea of my start as a couple
Change to a cornerstone of companionship

An unseeable woman it took
Her message of art, humans and God
Rounded with wit, humor and worldiness
So compelled, and with ease
I was freed to set aside rash starts

And that woman turned to friend
