A Friend

A friend...

listens when I need an airing

smiles to show real care

cries when I am hurting

laughs as joys we share

gives when I am needy

speaks what I need to hear

prays for God to sustain me

loves with trust, not fear.

Some Friends Stay a While

Some people

come into our lives

and quickly go.

Some people

become friends

and stay awhile...

leaving beautiful

footprints on our

hearts.

and we are never

quite the same

because we have

made a good friend!!
