I have come to realise that what u
give may not be what people want, so it's better not to give so much then u wun
hurt so much.
i feel that the poem's last paragraph is very true....
there might be other friends but some may not take the effort or do not have the
time to be bothered with u....
basically i am someone who cares and
places a lot of importance on friends. i believe in quality friends rather then
quantity friends..
i dedicate this to all my friends, esp Lizheng aka
leech who has been with me thru thick and thin... we had our mini "quarrels" but
then we are still great friends.. and hope we will remain so......
stella...who wld listen to my grumbles.....and share with me her
stories...another blessed gal with her "rabbit" :P
to jane, a person
whom i dun really understand even until now..
to caixia, a person who
shares my interest
to sarah, a nice and blessed gal...with such a nice
bf :P
TO A FRIEND
YOU ENTERED my life in a casual way,
And
saw at a glance what I needed;
There were others who passed me or met me
each day,
But never a one of them heeded.
Perhaps you were thinking of
other folks more,
Or chance simply seemed to decree it,
I know there
were many such chances before,
But the others-well, they didn't see it.
You said just the thing that I wished you would say,
And you made me
believe that you meant it;
I held up my head in the old gallant way,
And
resolved you should never repent it.
There are times when encouragement
means such a lot,
And a word is enough to convey it;
There were others
who could have, as easy as not,
But, just the same, they didn't say it.
There may have been someone who could have done more
To help me
along, though I doubt it,
What I needed was cheering, and always before
They had let me plod onward without it.
You helped to refashion the
dream of my heart,
And made me turn eagerly to it;
There were others who
might have (I question that part)-
But, after all, they didn't do it
another poem that's nice....
ARE YOU MY FRIEND??James Brinkworth
Will you be there
when I'm down,
And catch me when I fall?
Will you hold me when I need
To feel the warmth of your touch?
Will you laugh when I laugh,
And
cry when I cry?
Will you let me rant and rave,
When I need to let off
steam?
Will you discuss those painful things,
That you'd rather not
think about?
Like the times we've hurt each other,
And promised would
never do so again?
Will you say the right thing,
When all I've heard is
the wrong?
And tell me soothing words,
That make the pain I feel
subside?
Will you understand me when I say,
"I can't see you now, go
away"?
Will you come back when I call,
As if nothing happened at all?
If you'll do these things for me,
And keep smiling all the way.
If
you'll be with me through the bad times,
As well as the good.
Then truly
you are my friend,
My pal, my mate and my confidante.
And that means so
much to me.
I thank you dearly, for being there,
You, My Friend.
TO GO BACK!!!!
