Eap - True Friends .

Your true friend sees you ...

   By the smile showing pride .

    As the strength by their  side .

     By the trust you'll  confide .

      As the brakes , on life's  slide ...

For some reason this made me think of the song by the Beatles "I Want To Hold Your Hand". Great descriptive write of friendship whether it be wife, child, or a friend from childhood. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara

Great perspective on the qualities that make a good friend, Sean. If these are the qualities you offer to others, anyone would be proud to call you a friend. Best wishes for success in Brian's contest with this super eap! Love, Carolyn
