Friends

A Friend
by Sir Shotgun

A friend is the one who tells you the truth
regardless of the cost,
A friend will help you find the thing's
you'd given up as lost

A friend will never put you down
or make you feel alone,
He'll smile and try to comfort you
'cause together you have grown

A friend is the one who picks you up
when you've fallen on the ground,
A friend is the one whose voice at night
is a welcome, warming sound

So when you think you're on your own
and wish you had a helping hand,
Remember, a friend is the one who,
when you cry, will always understand

Because the world is full of people
who will laughingly pretend,
But, when it's said and done
you're lucky if you've got a friend ...

I like that. makes me think of that funny comment someone once made about being co-workers rather than friends.

Wise call. :)

What a nice post! Isn't it amazing that people come in and out of our lives, but friends stand by through thick and thin.:)

Love your background too.
