What Are Friends

A friend doesn’t ask what can I do They are already there doing it A friend doesn’t ask how are you They have listened to your voice and guessed They are there by your side A friend doesn’t say you need a break They have organised one to your favourite spa hotel Helping you to pack your belongings being thoroughly spoilt Sorting out the dog with a house dog sitter, A friend, is what I hope I am to others As my friends are to me. Special people who have an antennae Focused on your needs. Soon my days of needing friends will be over, only in the helping format. I will always need friends, hoping they will always need me to

Friends such as you describe are what makes a good life possible. Lots of friends aren't necessary, just one or two close ones who care and love. Beautiful piece... Jack
