Friendship
Angels are in heaven,
But they are also on Earth.
They aren't called angels, though.
They're called friends.
I'm extra lucky though,
Because God gave me the best ones.
Lexi, Angelica, Riley, Alec
I am blessed beyond measure.
Friends aren't just entertainment,
They are advice-givers.
They are shoulders to cry on,
They are always there.
Angelica is always there
She's sweet, she's kind.
She's one of the best,
And I'm glad she's in my life.
Lexi is funny and smart.
We have a lot in common.
She's a great advice-giver
And she's always there for me.
Riley has been there always.
We've been friends since she was a baby.
We're still really close
She's my longest friend.
Alec is the best boyfriend imaginable,
But he's also my best friend.
He's funny, he's sweet,
and he's always respected me.
These four friends are lifesavers,
Helping me in troubled times.
I love them all,
And they know it's true.
I would do anything for them,
And I know they would too.
Over the years I've learned,
Only certain friends are true.
I thank God for my friends,
They have helped me through so much.
Without them my life would be dull,
And I wouldn't have as much fun.
Thank you Lord for giving me
The best friends that could ever be.
They've always been there to help me,
To support me, to save me.
True friends are the ones who stay,
When everyone else has walked away.
They stand by your side, no matter what,
And they will never leave you alone.
My best friends are amazing.
I am so lucky I have them.
I don't know why they befriended me,
But I'm so glad they did!
Thanks again, Lord, for wonderful friends.
Thank you for letting them in my life,
Thank you for letting them stay.
Thank you, Lord, for my angels.
