A Friend
A Friend
I once saw the formulas for love:
Friendship plus peace plus passion.
Different types of friendship, different levels
Experienced from childhood through to old age homes
When you meet that person you click with
An instant magical connection is made
Someone who understands you well
Who sees beauty through your broken windows
At times when a tear rolls down unnoticed
She takes your hand and gives it a gentle squeeze
Someone who sense your hardship
And her presence alone makes the burden lighter
She listens attentively when u pour out your heart
With a box of tissues and a box of chocolate
A friends who is closer than any family
Who knows u inside out, upside down
Day by day you spend with him
You are amazed at his kind, caring heart
An earthly angel you may describe him
For with his smile, you feel Heaven's touch
A word you utter she understands
Some kind of code she's learnt well
You ponder why you deserve such a friend
And your mind is blank without a reason
Happy are you if u have such a friend
For in this wicked world, there're but a few.
Dedicated to all the friends I have, few yet true indeed.
And to the even fewer friends I made during my 2010/2011 holiday.
Much love, Nissy Ade
