Dear True Friend

A true friend is someone who will remain by your side till the gruelling end Forever glued to your hip with no leeway to let your unbreakable bond bend Someone who will remain supportive of you no matter how crazy your dreams are They must be willing to be your glimmering lucky star A true friend will always be there to catch you when you fall To pick you back up and help you grow tall when you are feeling demolished and small They will respect you for who you are and will never ask you to change They will aid and inspire you to break through your comfort range You have been nothing but an inspiration and supportive of me Without you I do not know where my poetry would be You thankfully blessed me with all I know You will forever help my writing blossom and grow June 17, 2018 Qualities You Admire in Friends Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Carolyn Devonshire and Jack Horne 8th Place
