Friends are forever,
Friends are for real.
Friends are for expressing,
 All the emotions we try to hide, but feel.

Friends are the flowers,
which line the river's edge.
They are for sharing, and for caring,
and for the shields they place around us, like a hedge.

Friends are for leaning on,
They are for helping, and comforting, too.
It would take forever,
to describe all that they are,
and true ones, are scattered and few.

I am truly blessed in every way,
and I thank the Lord on every day,
because I have such a good Friend in YOU!
