Your Friendship Is a Blessing

Friends like you are but a treasure,
your kindness and caring ways knowone could measure.
Spending time with you we have so much fun,
as we look back and reminice when the day is done.
I wish we could express how much your friendship means,
You are like our family in whom we can lean.
We can confide in you our problems when knowone else cares,
taking in those preciouse moments when we laugh and share.
You make us laugh when we are feeling down,
and pick us back up when we feel the need to frown.
Moments spent with you we cherish in our heart,
even when life takes an unexpected turn and we may part.
People like you are few and far betwen,
you are the kindess people we have ever seen.
We will always be here for you when times get tough,
Even when you feel you can't go on and you think you've had enough.
I belive we will all be friends even when the Lord calls us home,
where we will laugh and pray and never be alone.

Welcome to this site. I know you will like it here. You have a nice poem that is in need of some refinement. You have a number of spelling errors in this write. Your "knowone" should be replaced with either "no one" or "nobody". That's just one example.

a refreshing poem, and I love it. Shannon, , Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT
