This is a poem I wrote a few months ago and then misplaced it.  Finally found it yesterday so decided to share.

FRIENDS

There’s nothing like a true friend,

Always having time to lend,

One who’s there to give a hand,

Always by your side to stand.

One you know that you can trust,

For a good friend, that’s a must.

Good friends stay whate’er betide,

E’en when troubles open wide.

Friends are special, that we know,

Do we really show it though?

We should be a friend that’s true,

Then we’re bound to get a few.

One thing that we always know,

Good friends help, they’re not just show.

Friends are not just for pleasure,

Think of friends as a treasure!
