    With Friends- by Susan Flosence

    If there is one ingredient in which adds warmth and love to our lives...
    it is friendship.
    If there is one relationship to help us through all the others...
    it is friendship.
    Friends surround us with the beauty of their caring.
    With friends we can share what we see, what we feel and what we love.
    Friends help us with our problems because they listen.
    And as they listen we begin to hear the language of our own hearts.
    With friends we can walk along the remembered paths of our lives and
    completely share our experiences.
    With friends we can work the soil of forgotten dreams that needed to be
    tended and nurtured once again.
    With friends we can plant the seed of our hearts new dreams.
    We can always return to a friend like going back to a special
    place...
    and find the same warm feeling unchanged by time or distance.
    Life gives us friends so we can share the prescious times and memorable
    moments of being children, and teenagers, and adults, and parents, and
    grandparents.
    Life gives us friends so we can share the growing up...
    and growing down and old.
    With friends we have a place to go to be accepted and understood.
    Together we can laugh.
    Together we can cry.
    Our thoughts are heard, our feelings are held in the heart of a
    friend.
    With friends our lives are made more full, more rich, more open,
    beautiful and blessed!!!!! 



    

       A friend is someone who truly cares,

   A friend is someone who's always there,

   A friend will be there in times of woe,

   Talking, laughing, and sometime letting go,

   Times alone we sometimes need,

   But coming back we will do indeed,

   There may be times we may not agree,

   For you are you and I am me,

   We may argue because of that fact,

   But our power of friendship will bring us back,

   Cause the love in our hearts we feel inside,

   Is not something we would ever hide,

   So come to me in times of need,

   Cause you my dear always have a friend in me.

         --Smiles


    For all of those internet friends:
    FRIENDS WITHOUT FACES
 
We sit and we type, and we stare at our screens
We all have to wonder, what this possibly means.
 
With our mouse we roam, through the rooms in a maze
Looking for something or someone, as we sit in a daze.

We chat with each other, we type all our woes
Small groups we do form, and gang up on our foes.
 
We wait for somebody, to type out our name
We want recognition, but it is always the same.
 
We give kisses and hugs, and sometimes flirt
In IMs we chat deeply, and reveal why we hurt.
 
We do form friendships - but - why we don't know
But some of these friendships, will flourish and grow.
 
Why is it on screen, we can be so bold
Telling our secrets, that have never been told.
 
Why is it we share, the thoughts in our mind
With those we can't see, as though we were blind.
 
The answer is simple, it is as clear as a bell.
We all have our problems, and need someone to tell.
 
We can't tell real people, but tell someone we must
So we turn to the 'puter, and to those we can trust.
 
Even though it is crazy, the truth still remains
They are Friends Without Faces, and odd little names.

    
---Pam Thomas (PSPamela)

   meant old friend of mine, to me along the way.
