A Friend Indeed

In these times of trouble Friends are rare indeed Not many take the time To grab a hand and lead. But you take the time To listen and to share You listen then you speak Because you really care. And when I'm not too strong Or when I'm feeling blue You make your stay with me And then you come and do. And when I fall behind And I cry out in need You place me first in line And make all others heed. And when I am often blinded And I refuse to be You show me how I am And become the light to see. In the time that I have known you You have been kind and true My repayment to you always is living. "I love you!" Brenda Elizabeth Rose
