Opinion

I HAVE A FRIEND BY PETER MASHOTO

I have a friend
Who is perfect for me
She listens to all my problems
No matter how dumb they may be
She likes herself for who she is
And never tries to change
She tells me to be myself
And that I should never change
She was shy on the phone
But she would still call
And we would talk for hours
About nothing at all
We would talk about love and life
And discuss what we wanted to be
She knew just how I felt
And how happy I could be
She listens to me patiently
But never judges what I do or say
She helped with some  my problems

I never once felt judged by her
How much that meant to me
That I could tell her all my opinions,
Views,thoughts, dreams
And she would listen to me
I am thankful for that friend(mmata) of mine

Our friendship means  lot to me
And I wish  she could  always be there
For she is my  friend I mean mmata waka
It is a sweet thing, friendship, a dear balm,
A happy and auspicious bird of calm…

Dedicated to my friend lethabo whom I like to call: MRS GWANGWA
