"You were a giant"

"You were a giant"

A Poem by Jon Roggie

Comment made by a friend.
I was exhausted both physically,
  and emotionally.
How do you reply?
Simple jest?
Time moves forward.
Humor returns,
 and not so tired.
 
Yes,
 my arms are that long.
Still not showing a true height.
Hesitant.
Still tired.
Waiting for something.

Humour, especially amongst friends and loved ones, is a great leveller to whatever circumstances occur. To add a smile to someones day, and take away a worry, no matter how briefly, is a talent in itself. Nice to see some appreciation coming your way, and you stretching out to your full height/potential.
I most certainly appreciate your humour and words.
