Friendship
Of all the treasures that life can lay at our feet
True friendships stand among the very best
To support you when living hands you defeat
Of your life's ups and downs they gladly partake
Taking your hand when you are hard pressed
Making their own sacrifices just for your sake
Comrades without whom you are not complete
Those that stick by you, the years will attest
A listener when there is pain and deceit
To have such friends you must be one too
And hold them tenderly for you are so blessed
A priority as they do the same for you
Of all the treasure that life can lay at our feet
Comrades without whom you are not complete
