Friendship

Friendship is a beautiful word.

It conjures up pictures of friends we have known

And friends we have lost.

A friend is someone you care for

And who cares for you.

A loyal companion, a confidant,

One you can count on when things go wrong

And one to celebrate with when things go right.

A friend is someone who is always there for you,

Day or night … in sorrow or in joy.

A friend can chat with you or sit in comfortable silence,

Someone who will listen and just be your friend.
