My Best Friend
My best friend can't speak
She can't sing, she can't shriek.
But she can listen for hours,
Almost like a special power.
She hears my laughter,
When I share my banter.
But when I need to cry,
She’s always nearby.
She runs and plays-
She could for days.
My best friend likes to sleep,
On my bed, by my feet.
Whenever I call,
She comes running with her ball.
She doesn't judge-
Or hold a grudge.
Whenever I’m feeling lonely,
I want her company only.
She knows my voice,
I am her first choice.
Her smile brings me joy.
Our friendship is one no one can destroy.
I love her more and more each day-
And those feelings will never go away.
She is my best friend-
And I will love her until the end.
