True Friendship

 

A friend's an attitude within you

A talk you can always continue

A feeling you have known awhile,

A thought that sparks an inner smile.

A friend's a person you hold dear,

Who ventures far, yet stays quite near,

Whose presence sets the spirit free,

Who brings out candour and honesty.

A friend shares all your joys and tears,

Feels triumph with you, knows your fears,

Accepts your strengths and weaknesses too,

Won't let small things dull friendship's hue.

A friend will walk life's miles with you,

And nourish values sound and true,

Though paths may sometimes drift apart,

True friendship never leaves the heart.
