friendship poems

I'll Be There
If you're ever feeling alone
And need comfort or care,
I'll always be the one to stand by you
You know I'll always be there.
The sun may not be shining
There may be clouds above,
But for now until the end of time
I will be sending you all my love.
When you just can't take the pain
And your thoughts have passed you by,
There will always be my shoulder for you
The moment you begin to cry.
The birds may not be chirping
But we will never be apart,
Because I always want you close to me
Deep down inside my heart.

Perfect Flower
Lovely flowers grow everywhere
Their secretive scent hanging in the air,
And although we don't know it right now
A flower can help you in a special way somehow.
A perfect flower can brighten your day
In an extra special way,
So if you ever see someone looking sad
Give them a flower and they won't feel so bad. : )

Many people walk in and out of your life
But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart
To handle yourself, use your head,
To handle others, use your heart.
Anger is only one letter short of danger.
If someone betrays you once; it is his fault,
If he betrays you twice; it is your fault.

A special friend of mine (Beth) wrote this on the back of an envelope for me....
It takes a lot of time, understanding and trust
to gain a close friendship with someone.
As I approach a time of my life of complete uncertainty,
My friends are the most precious asset.

My Friend
My friend�
You gave me corouge,
That was not there�
You have given laughter,
That I can share�
You have given me feelings,
That are deep and true�
For that my friend,
I will always love you.

May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sunshine warm upon your face,
And the rains fall soft upon your fields�
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of his hand
