Friendship Poems

You ask me if I'd walk a mile
Along a dark and dangerous shore
Just to help a friend in need
Whose faith I could restore
I sadly shake my head
For surely you jest -
Wherein lies the proof 
from such a measly little test?
There may be certain actions
That no one can foretell
But I swear that for my friends
I'd storm the gates of hell!






My very closest friends
are a reflection of me.
If not of what I am,
then of what I wish to be.





I love my friends
not only for their strengths,
but for any weaknesses you may see.
Because of their strengths…
I need them
Because of their weaknesses…
They need me.






No matter what adversity
I may sometimes have to face
I can do it with a smile
And calm assuring grace.
Not because I hold the answers
To life's uncertain woe's
But because my friends are there
To help me face my foe's!






Don't tell me of my friend's faults
For they matter not to me
List instead their virtues
For that's all I care to see!
