Emile Pinet Poet Rhyme

That Extra Mile

My best friend is like my right arm:
city born, with a country charm.
And striving to steer me from harm:
Should I stray, he sounds the alarm.

I've grown accustomed to his face:
He's impossible to replace.
For we joke, and at times embrace:
He's someone I trust in my space.

I feel lucky to have met him,
for he fills my glass to the brim.
And often drops by on a whim;
to brighten my day when it's dim.

He embodies finesse and style.
always going that extra mile.
And never fails to make me smile;
friends for life, not just for a while.

Knowing he'll always take my part
has bought him a spot in my heart.
And we will never drift apart,
for we've been best friends from the start.
