Haley Fisher Poet Rhyme

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
