Grace

One ear is a gift

And I'm granted two. 

A single voice breaks the silence, 

And suddenly an entire choir,

Orchestra

intensifies.

Nothing passes perfectly,

But its enough to know that it could. 

One friend is a gift, 

And I'm granted you.

[Everett DeValle]

Good Friendships are great...which you beautifully portrayed in your poem. Excellent.

[Siddhartha]

Resonates with joy that only a true friend can bring...And oozes the bliss that acknowledgement of such a friendship brings....Precious...Beautiful...

[An owl on the moon]

There is such a rich treasure found here... Thoughts that drift over those gifts we are granted in the joy of grace... and a friend, oh how a friend is the best gift of all... Beautiful...

[Rose]

Short and sweet.

I do like the premise of this poem and the last two lines. I'm not sure that I appreciate (on just a single reading) how the second stanza advances the theme - it seems a bit unrelated to the rest of the poem. Whatever, its might be better as it's. Great work on this and others I've looked at since Dinesh pointed me this way.
