Friends...

My Friend

by Sammy Lane Sharp

WE all need someone

To talk to in our life,

A friend to whom we run

In times of stress or strife

A friend who's always there

Throughout the years,

A friend we know will care

And take away our fears.

A friend who's always near,

Waiting for our call,

To wipe away our tears,

And lift us when we fall.

A loving friend indeed,

On whom we can depend

To fulfill our every need -

Thank you, precious friend

Childhood Friends
by Mindy Carpenter

AS childhood friends, we grew up together,

Swearing to be friends forever and ever.

Sometimes we would argue and fight,

Other times we would laugh and stay up all night.

WE went from playing with games and toys,

To talking and dreaming about different boys.

My thoughts and feelings, to you I would confide,

Never having anything to hide.

FRIENDS we do remain,

Things changing, and things staying the same.

To each other we still listen and share,

About each other, we will always care.
