Hi everyone! Well, here are some poems that I found that I liked...
Forever Friends
Sometimes in life, you find a special friend;
Someone who changes your life by being part of it.
Someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop;
Someone who convinces you that there is an unlocked door
just waiting for you to open it.
This is forever friendship....
When you're down, and the world seems dark and empty,
your forever friend lifts you up in spirit and
makes that dark and empty world
suddenly seem bright and full...
Your forever friend gets you through the hard times,
the sad times, and the confused times.
If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows.
If you lose your way, your forever friend
guides you and cheers you on.
Your forever friend holds your hand
and tells you that everything is
going to be okay.
And if you find such a friend
you feel happy and complete,
because you need not worry.
You have a forever friend for life
and forever has no end...
Friends Are
It is by chance we met, by choice we became friends...
Friendship is a strange thing....
We find ourselves telling each other the deepest details of our lives...
things we don't even share with our families who raised us...
But what is a friend? A confidant? A lover? A fellow email Junkie?
A shoulder to cry on? an ear to listen? a heart to feel?...
A friend is all these things...and more. No matter where we met, ....I call you friend.
A word so small...yet so large in feeling...a word filled with emotion.
It is true great things come in small packages.
Once the package of friendship has been opened, it can never be closed..
It is a constant book always written...waiting to be read...and enjoyed.
We may have our disagreements...we may argue...we may concern one another...
friendship is a unique bond that lasts through it all....
A part of me is put into my friends...some it is my humor...
some it is my listening ear...some it is real life experiences...some it is my romanticism...
but with all, it is friendship.
Friendships forged are a construction stronger than steel built as a foundation....
necessary for life... and necessary for love.
Friends...you and me...
you brought another friend...
and then there were 3...
we started our group...
Our circle of friends...
and like that circle...
there is no beginning
or end...
How Many Friends Have You?
The old man turned to me and asked,
"How many friends have you?"
Why 10 or 20 friends have I and named off just a few....
He rose quite slow with effort and sadly shook his head
"A lucky child are you to have so many friends, he said.
But think of what you're saying: there is so much you do not know.
A friend is not just someone to whom you say "hello",
A friend's a tender shoulder on which to softly cry,
A well to pour your troubles down and raise your spirits high
A friends a hand to pull you up from darkness and despair
When all your other "so called" friends have helped to put you there.
A true friend is an ally who can't be moved or bought
A voice to keep your name alive when others have forgot
But most of all a friend's a heart is a strong and sturdy wall
For from the hearts of friends there comes the greatest love of all!!!
So think of what I've spoken for every word is true
And answer once again my child
How many friends have you?
And then he stood and faced me awaiting my reply
Soft and sad I answered
"If lucky.... One have I"
This one was actually a forward I got, so technically, it belongs in the "forwards" page, but it seems like a poem, too, so I decided to put it in here...
My Special List
I have a list of folks I know...
all written in a book,
And every now and then..
I go and take a look
That is when I realize
these names... they are a part,
not of the book they're written in...
but taken from the heart
For each Name stands for someone...
who has crossed my path sometime,
and in that meeting they have become...
the reason and the rhyme.
Although it sounds fantastic...
for me to make this claim,
I really am composed...
of each remembered name.
Although you're not aware...
of any special link,
just knowing you, has shaped my life...
more than you could think.
So please don't think my greeting...
as just a mere routine,
your name was not...
forgotten in between.
For when I send a greeting...
that is addressed to you,
it is because you're on the list...
of folks I'm indebted to.
So whether I have known you...
for many days or few,
in some ways you have a part...
in shaping things I do.
I am but a total...
of many folks I've met,
you are a friend I would prefer...
never to forget.
Thank you for being my friend!
Token of Your Love
I slept with it, I dreamt with it,
The Token of Your Love.
I stared at it, I thought about it,
of our heaven up above.
You gave it, I accepted it,
I didn't know how to feel.
You asked, I was silent,
how can all this be real?
I said it was a long time,
You realized it was and said,
"Do what you feel is right",
Can someone stop loving?
I partly did, I found out last night.
Why did I fall out of love?
It must have not been true.
I did try to tell you.
Trying not to hurt you,
I couldn't
I knew it wouldn't come out right.
But now you're gone.
Gone to serve your time.
"Do what you feel is right"
How can I if I still have,
The Token of Your Love...
