Friendship

 

Ir comes with no price tag and is freely given

Few are they who enter through this door

Acquaintances queue in their scores to seek entry

but many are flawed with deceit or other motives

 

Friends are bars of gold to be treasured

nothing will shock nor disappoint them

They listen attentively and advise wisely

what they say is for the benefit of the soul

 

They will walk the extra mile with you

give generously of all they have to keep you

Confidences are always highly regarded

secrets are kept firmly under lock and key

 

Abandonment or betrayal has no place in their vocabulary

Four square, shoulder to shoulder, your cross to bear

In a life time you many encounter only a few

when you do hold fast to them

 

They are a precious commodity of incomparable value

worth their weight in gold and more

For they will not like you but love you

they will cherish you and you will know it
