Treasure

FRIENDSHIP IS A TREASURE,
THAT IS RARELY FOUND.
BUT WHEN IT IS FOUND,
ITS BEAUTY CHANGES THE LIFE,
OF ITS POSSESSOR!!
NO LONGER POOR IN SPIRIT,
BUT RICH WITH JOY,
THE JOY IN KNOWING SOMEONE CARES.
NO LONGER KEPT AWAKE,
WITH FEELINGS OF INADEQUACY,
BUT GREETED EVERYDAY,
WITH WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT,
THAT ONLY A FRIEND GIVES.
EMBRACED BY ITS ARMS OF UNDERSTANDING,
THAT SEEM LIMITLESS.
ARE YOU UNDERSTANDING THIS?
A FRIEND IS TRULY A GIFT ,
SENT FROM THE HEAVENS ABOVE.
A COMFORTER ,
IN THE THE MIDST OF SORROW.
THAT EXTRA STRENGTH,
THAT CARRIES YOU THROUGH YOUR TOMORROWS.
A FRIEND IS TREASURE RARELY FOUND.
IT LIFTS YOU UP,
NEVER KEEPS YOU DOWN.
TREASURE IT ,
FOR THE TREASURE IT IS!!!
FOR FRIENDSHIP IS KNOWN ,
FOR THE LIFE IT GIVES.
I THANK GOD MY FRIEND HE LIVES!!!!
