On Friendship

A soul to talk to, Share secrets; A soul who walks you Through life’s stress… A soul to laugh with, and to cry; Someone who makes your tears go dry... A soul dependable, Who consoles; A soul, you’re proud of, And who cares… A soul who’s priceless, More than wealth; Someone who keeps you In good health… A soul who affords timely help; Someone who gives you right advice… A soul with mind, almost like yours’; Someone who feels like how you would… A well-wisher; A comforter; A body-part like your own heart… A selfless soul, Who keeps you whole; A part of life You dare not part… And rarely friends too blunders make; And make you cry More than your foes! Good friends; Thick friends; Fine friends; Best friend… And that’s what friendship’s all about; Friends share your hardships, joys, no doubt! Copyright by Dr John Celes 5-29-2008
