Your Poetry Dot Com - Ode To Friendship

Oh what a joy to see your face
on each new breaking day!
Your youth and beauty are so great
I know they'll always stay.

Your head is so filled up with thoughts,
your mind is such a treasure;
that when you choose to share it all
it gives me so much pleasure.

The world is filled with so much pain,
it's a cold and desolate place.
It wakes me up to look and see
the life that you embrace.

You always have a caring heart
and a smile for those in need.
You give yourself to everyone
and know nothing of greed.

Even though you have your share
of problems in your life,
you're quick to laugh, and full of fun;
You don't give in to strife.

I'm grateful for the time we've shared,
you've made me laugh with tears.
You make my life a better place,
a friend to last for years.
