Three poems - friendship
Breath of Kindness
What made us friends in the long ago
when first we met?
Well I think I know
the best in me and the best in you
hailed each other because we knew
that always and always since life began,
our being friends was part of God’s plan.

To A special Sister:
You are always a pleasure to be with,
Sharing my plans and schemes.
You are someone who listens with interest
to all my hopes and dreams.
You are someone who joins in my laughter
and knows how to comfort and cheer.
You’re someone I treasure deep in my heart.
Our closeness grows year by year.
Having a sister like you is a joy,
You’re thoughtful, caring and dear.
Always so willing to give me a hand,
letting me know you are near.
People like you are always too few.
A sister as special as you

To My Friend:
This is not for Any Special Reason.
I say this “just because”
I noticed that a certain friend needed a thank you,
For all the sweet things she does.
I think you’re special and I never want to lose you,
I’m glad you’re my best friend.
I know I never could have made it without you.
You’re the greatest: Where would I be without you?
Because you stood by me
Through the hard times
And I cried on you
Through the sad times
We can make it through
Because we two are friends.
Just look at the ups and downs we’ve seen together
Yep, we’ve been through it all
You can rely on me in any kind of weather.
I’ll catch you if you fall.
I know you’re special and I never want to lose you.
I’m glad you’re my best friend.
The way you’ve helped me is the way I want to help you.
You’re the greatest: who would I be without you?
So I will stand by you
Through the hard times.
You can cry on me
Through the sad times.
We can make it through
Because we two are friends.
Yeah, if you want to we can make it through
Because we two are friends
