My Priceless Gifts - Friends!!

A friend is someone we turn to

When our spirits need a lift,

A friend is someone we treasure

For, friendship is a priceless gift,

That cannot be bought or sold

But, its value is far more

Than a mountain full of gold.

 

A friend is someone I would always thank

And laugh with at all our naughty pranks.

A friend is patient and forgiving

Never failing or complaining.

I’m unable to explain

What is it to share life’s joys and life’s pain

With a person whom I know

Will always stand by my side,

When there are thousands on the other side.

 

I am grateful to say

At the end of every day ---

That I have a friend

Who sparkles in the darkness,

Like fireworks and gems;

That my friend will never stay,

More than a classroom away.

Proof of my true friend is to know,

That if I was lost in this world one day,

My priceless gift would find me once again.
