In Praise of Friends.
The quiet one , who is always there .
Whose trust is real, and who'll always share
That secret deep within your inner soul .
No loyalty emblem will he wear .
But in silence lift the pain and dare
To cure the aches and ills your wrongs extol .
No ransom, or obscene demand ;
For loyalty is outside command ,
And beyond the dream of rainbows fickle end .
That silent strength that's by your side
When the hard place and the rock collide ,
Is the lifting power of your special friend .
