They see but do not notice the things you cannot change.
They lend a hand when you are down,  and cheer when you are sad.
They fuss, fight, and argue but never hold a grudge.
In your defense they take a stand and seldom ever budge.
They may be tall, short, fat, or thin, with hair or none at all.
But they help you up again when you trip and fall.
They can be son or daughter, sibling, mom, or dad.
You're happy when they're successful, and cry when things go bad.
They may be a stranger, your husband or your wife.
And if you work very hard they'll be your friends for life.
