She knows the way I feel in every way
I tell her what I think and what I know
I know the way she faces every day
I see the sides she never meant to show
I know about her loves and secret dreams
She knows the way I sigh for just one girl
Our lives have merged like little mountain streams
That find a larger river in a whirl
We sometimes hit each other on a nerve
But never lose the notion we are friends
Some days we have to give a little swerve
Before we reach our own projected ends
We aren't in love our love is deep and true
I hope that there's a friend like this for you

Having true friends brings my life alot of happiness. Both male and female friends occupy my life and we tend to all hang out at the same place. In Hawaii every Saturday evening we dress in Hawaiian dress and hit the nicest places to meet others. Hawaii is always fun to have a beach party. Once a monthe we will all gather on the beach and stay till the wee hours of the morning.

Friends are one of the greatest gifts that can be sent to us... Great poem on friendship

Perfect and penned for a true friend indeed. Good friends are so hard to find and when you find one you should tell them just like you are doing here.
Love,

What a beautiful description of the wonder of friendship. I particularly appreciated the honesty in this--that friendship, though usually great, also has its conflicts. . . and when we can stand together despite those differences, we know we have found true connection. This is so very lovely. Thank you.

Lovers come and lovers go but a friend stays forever.

A beautiful sonnet to honour a true friend and the friendship they provide.
All the best
