WILL YOU? (Quatrain)

A response poem to Antonyo’s “The Sweetest Thing” http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/Tonyo247/1262404/

If she's the sweetest thing for you
Always a friend and always there
You love her way, her feel, don't you?
You see her here and everywhere.

The heart that she tries to protect
Will you guard it, protect it too?
Will you love to watch her just be
When she chooses to be with you?

She knows, no need to pretend
Not at any time, not for you, dear
Will you be there just to extend
An open arm and listening ear?

Why in this world you see her, too
Just like a star that's far to hold?
Don't you feel she's closer to you
Or you just didn't hear when she called?

I've seen just here, here in my place
How both of you enjoyed the ride
Why not pursue to run the race
With tender care, just hold her hand?

If she's the sweetest thing for you
Then do something to let her feel
That you are there, don't let her go
Forever friends, will you stand still?
