Discovering A Friend
If sorrow never happened and trouble never came,
If all your days were bright and fair and certain was your place,
Time was, I used to nod to one who lived across the way,
'Tis not in sunshine friends are made, but when our skies are grey,
This page is dedicated to my New Friends
The only thing you'd know about your neighbour is his name.
You'd only know the fellow by the features of his face.
Acquaintances upon the earth are all you'd ever own,
If care had always passed you by and grief you'd never known.
But nothing did he mean to me, and nothing I to him,
Until one morning sorrow came, and all my world was grim.
I saw his face, I felt his hand and knew he'd come to lend,
The strength I needed, and right then I found I had a friend.
The splendid souls that men possess are never on display.
We cannot tell what lies behind the hasty nod or smile,
Nor what of worth will come from it in just a little while;
We only know that when we face the cares that life must send,
We realize the passer-by has changed into a friend.
