Here I am again with another song inspired contest.
This time its about friends.
we all have them and some are very very special to us.
you can dedicate your poem to one of your friends or not whatever you choose.
The song below is You've Got A friend By Carole King please use either the video or lyrics to inspire you.
I love this song and it's special to me.
I have the kind of friends that I would do anything for and I know would do the same for me.
There is a link to the video and also for those who cant access the video I have also provided the lyrics.
I would prefer you listen to the song but if you cant then you can use the lyrics.
I have only a few rules.
1. Don't be rude when commenting on others writes if you do so.
2. No chat speak.
3 No erotic just doesn't fit.
4. No typing like an idiot.
5. Have fun and make me feel it

Lyrics
When you're down in troubles
And you need some love and care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon i will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you got to do is call
And I'll be there
Yes I will
You've got a friend
If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them
You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend
Okay now go and pen me something beautiful.
