Best Fair Weather Poems
Fair Weather Friends - Collaboration With Jan Allison
You told me we’d always be friends
Out of the blue our friendship ends
I was your ‘forever friend’ - you told me so
Now you simply don’t want to know
Thought you the one on who I could rely
A comforting shoulder when I wanted to cry
A shining beacon that brought me light
Our friendship was a pure delight

Fair-Weather Friends Collaboration With Shane Cooper
You told me we’d always be friends
Out of the blue our friendship ends
I was your ‘forever friend’ - you told me so
Now you simply don’t want to know
Thought you the one on who I could rely
A comforting shoulder when I wanted to cry
A shining beacon that brought me light
Our friendship was a pure delight

My Muse Is a Fair-Weather Friend
When the temperature soars
My Muse is cranky and cross
Whether in or out of doors
Meter and rhyme are quite lost
My head heavy, I'm bored
Sweat pours off my chin
Hunched over the keyboard
What a funk I am in
To slumber I yield
I nod off...

Light Verse
Friend of the Fair Weather
When there is sunshine on your shoulder, it is easy, oh so easy.
When spring is in the air and the lambs are out frolicking, it is easy,
oh so easy.
When the scent from the daffodils is tickling your nose, it is easy, oh so easy.
When you are sipping champagne in the field with...

Fair Weather Friends
It's very easy to be a friend- when nothing's going wrong
But when it does that's when some people- start singing a different song.
They make up fake excuses- or just outright lie
Which makes the one whose hurting- want to curl up and cry.
Some people then become hermits- as in their homes they stay.
Afraid to try friendship...

FAIR WEATHER FRIEND
Together we should sail uncharted sea
so if our ship is dashed on rocky slate,
we have no fear, but know that one of we
remains afloat, to save us from our fate!
and I would have you tredging at my side
if where I go is dark, through jungles deep,
so I'll be confident, although implied,
and not to...

A Fair Weather Friend Is No Friend At All
The words your eyes speak
Cover ground your lips will never travel
You call me equal, call me friend
But your eyes, they say you lie
They show me your disgust, your ridicule
You will never have respect for another but yourself
And never me, never me
So inferior to you I am
Lesser in every way, to you
Not pretty enough to love...

“It’s all in a day’s work
Tryin’ hard to defend
The time that I spend alone.”

And pick him up at night,
Then...

Verse
Fair Weather Friend
Fair weather friend,
Thou art a beguiling trench
So deep your carvings burrow
That the gorge, like a ghost's cravenly respite,
Stares at my face every morn and night,
And I, a childless brazen woman,
Wander along the narrow path of servility
Of fear and pain,
And the nuances of passion
Has desiccated my body
To a state of apathy
That is forever succumbing
To what...

Fair-Weather Friends
Fair-weather friends are NOT for me
So, I must make them ...history!
I need a friend who’s ALWAYS there
Through sunshine or storm, he shows care!
Someone who knows that I’m weak,
And will plant a kiss on my cheek.
A person who knows what is real
Who’s not afraid my pain to feel!
A friend who knows that I’m not whole,
Yet sees...

Fair Weather Friends
Much is said about friends and friendship
Pages are written extolling this kinship
No doubt it is a valuable relationship
When, it surely endures all the hardship.
Friendship is sacred, it is but hallowed
Friends are more than those revered
It is a great coincidence to get a hold
Of good friend, who is worthy to behold.
There are lots and lots of...

Fair-Weather Friends
We all have met and known some fair-weather friends
Pretenders to be supportive to the end
They Boost your confidence for awhile
By acting supportive and worthwhile
Until the day you are no longer needed
Then they act more arrogant and conceited
You try to contact them and try to reach out
Still no contact, you are starting to doubt
It is...

Fair Weather Friends
Always beware of a fair weather friend,
Who act like they care, but only pretend.
They'll pat your back and smile a lot,
But all they want is what you've got.
When things are good, they come around.
When things go wrong, they can't be found.
They'll let you pay all the time,
And never seem to have a dime.
They use you...
