~~Friendships Are Special~~ (Green Trophy Honorable Mention)

Missing image
Friends...
Are such special people
Of which God made very few
Friends...
Who are understanding
Friends...
Just like you~

Friends listen to your problems
And help you with your fears
They lend a shoulder to cry on
And wipe away your tears~

Friends....
Share so many important things
Of which I will name a few
Trust and understanding
Love and devotion too~

Friends...
Share the good times with the bad
Forever loyal, friends always come through
Having things in common
Keeps friendship forever true~

Only special people
Can fit the friendship mold
You fit the role perfectly
Of this you shall be told~

Best friends forever
That's the way it's going to be
Best friends forever
Now,forever and through eternity~

    excellent

    Susan, this is exactly what a good friendship is. I especially like "Friends listen to your problems
    And help you with your fears", because even the most stable people have them, and a friend brings an important and impartial point of view. I enjoyed your rhyming verse! Best wishes!

    Good to see you writing, Susan. This poem should be in greeting cards, because you expressed the feelings so many people have about their best friends.

    "Only special people
    Can fit the friendship mold"

    That is the thing, finding someone who fits our own personality, or can accept our flaws. It's easy to accept the positive things, but if they overlook our foibles...that is a friend indeed.

    I'm sorry about your not feeling well. I'm sure everything will go well.

    Dear Molly,

    Your poem speaks of many things
    that make up friendship true
    and I am very proud to have
    a friend s good as YOU.

    Though miles of ocean separate
    and we live far apart
    yet, you and I, since many years
    are in each other's heart.
    ~~~
    A beautiful and well-written poem, Molly, which expresses beautiful and meaningful thought. Good luck in the voting. Hope you are feeling better.

    Prayers, love and hugs, XXX Hugh (R.)[Your Da]
