A True Friend... Poem by Angela Ilyas

“A True Friend Sticks Closer than a Brother; Cries Harder than a Sister; Cares for You like a Mother; And with Honesty, Yet with Love and Wisdom, Corrects you like a Father.

A True Friend’s Yay will be Yay and there Nay will be Nay each and every day!

A True Friend will Know without being told when you need a “HUG” or just some Plain ’OL-Love!

A True Friend will Leap over Mountain Tops, Valley Hills, Countries, Oceans, and Rivers, To Just to be By Your Side when you need them to tell you: “It’s all going to be Okay Boo.”

A True Friend will Pick You Up when you fall down and dust the dirt off your back, Never throwing in your face the Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda’s, I told You That!

A True Friend, though not seen or heard from often or every day, will pick-up where you left off, excited to catch up on the old and new things along each other’s pathways.

Though ALL that I've said WOULD BE the PERFECT True Friend….

I’M NOT ONE!

For I Have My Many Faults!

YET, In My Heart, I AM and Forever WILL BE,

The VERY BEST FRIEND THAT YOU’LL EVER NEED!

All the While I’ll be Growing in Love and the Knowledge of How to Be

YOUR PERFECT TRUE FRIEND INDEED!

So, My Dear Friend…

Though I may NOT tell You as Often as you’d like to hear….

KNOW THIS:

I LOVE YOU!

AND…

I THANK GOD FOR BLESSING ME WITH YOU

AS MY DEAR SWEET FRIEND!

LOVE ALWAYS….

YOUR IMPERFECT TRUE FRIEND~~~~~ME! '
