A True Friend To Me

A true friend isn't a daydreamer and won't daydream for you. He isn't a bad wisher and will wish luck for you. A true friend is a painkiller, he exist to heal your wound. He is a consultant, there to help you grab and stand your ground. A true friend is rare to find in a vacuum. He is always at a wait by your door room. True frendship’s beauty never fades. Day by day, its beauty tree grows shades. A friend who is always there whenever we need Him most, is a true friend you and I need. 4/26/2013 For: Becca Lucas's "What a Friend Really Is" Contest

It can be an old poem of course. I am glad you ask. Or maybe you want to use your antelope. I agree with all the comments on that one... xox~ Linda

I thought the beginning lines were most interesting. A friend to help you keep your feet on the ground... not help your head get stuck in the clouds... what a way to word things!
