My FRIEND
My FRIEND
By: Ed Kielkucki
What is the making of a very good friend?
Not just in the beginning, but to the very end.
A Friend is FORGIVING for the stupid things you say,
To understand the meaning and move on to another day.
A Friend is RELIABLE and be there when in need
To help you during difficult times, even take the lead.
A Friend is INSIGHTFUL and understands the real you,
To give you good advice, in everything you want to do.
A Friend is ENCOURAGING especially when you’re down,
To cheer you up or make you laugh and always be around.
A Friend is NICE, someone with an upbeat positive feel,
To give a hug, or a friendly smile, just to keep it real.
A Friend is DEPENDABLE, when the unknown is in the air,
To do whatever is necessary, because they really do care.
I’m such a lucky person to have you close and by my side,
To help me enjoy each moment and be there for the ride.
