FRIENDS
Friends are like family,
related to us by affinity.
Some go off the rail.
Some let loose like hell.
You meet them on the road
Where you cross path by chance.
You hail them on the thoroughfare
Where trials and triumphs dance.
Sometimes you'll get to know them.
Perhaps on occasion that begins
with a simple hello or with a cheeky grin.
Sometimes they'll end up in bitter terms.
Goodbyes break down barriers
When they turn around to stay
For the better good, or for the best of times,
But rarely when the strifes will strike.
It would be nice not to harbour
A season at odds against the weather
That friendship will remain strong
Then no one can ever go wrong.
If only friends can stay true
To each other more than a family;
This world will be void of hostility
So love, peace and harmony pull through.

This poem is my Special Dedication to the Birthday Girl.
Friends are a gift from the Lord. I don't have many but the ones I have are beautiful people like you. We may not see each other much but I cherish our friendship. ❤❤❤ ~Arlene (Gabby Jun)
