FRIENDS IN NEED, by ESTELLE TAYLOR First Line: I came to you with troubled heart Last Line: I needed you -- you needed me. Subject(s): Friendship | ||||||||
I came to you with troubled heart, I knew not what; Evil, fear, imagination had played their part. Your tender care -- your quiet thought Renewed the strength, Courage, hope, and faith I sought. But when you bared your heart to me, Mountains of Love Arose -- to help you crown a victory. 'Twas then my troubles melted as the brightening sun Swallows the darkness; With unfaltering step -- renewed life was begun. And now I know it was to be; Time tempers all -- I needed you -- you needed me. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...YOU & I BELONG IN THIS KITCHEN by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA JASON THE REAL by TONY HOAGLAND NO RESURRECTION by ROBINSON JEFFERS CHAMBER MUSIC: 17 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 18 by JAMES JOYCE THE STONE TABLE by GALWAY KINNELL ALMSWOMAN by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN TO AN ENEMY by MAXWELL BODENHEIM SONNET: 10.
