What Is A Friend?

(Friendship Poems)

A friend is somebody

Who knows you and likes you

Exactly the way that you are.

Someone who’s special

And so close in thought

That no distance can ever seem far.

A friend understands you

Without any words,

Stands by you

When nothing goes right.

And willingly talks

Over problems with you

Till they somehow

Just vanish from sight.

And whether you’re neighbors

Or live miles apart,

A word from a friend gives a lift

To your heart and spirit.

That shows you once more

Why friendship is life’s dearest gift!
