Of Friendship

Of Friendship For years I haven’t grown, but bid my time For one day I know, in spring I’ll shine In avenues unknown, but will unfold in my eyes To bring about freedom, and with birds I’ll fly. Today, I start my life welcoming the light Reach out my hands for friends in sight With smiles that touch another’s life Sprinkling the day with my warm hands Each day I live is worth my time With words of comfort extended to everyone Pat on the back, assuring things will be fine Are returned tenfold, with trust that warms my heart The little cheers are a crown on my head A laurel of knowledge, a gift from above Achieved through sacrifice, patience through time A real knowledge, that friendship is a gold mine.
