Call Me Friend Poem by Collette Y Anderson Williams

Whenever you feel low
And need some cheering up,
Don't you ever be afraid
To call me up.

I'm always ready and willing
To do what I can
To make you feel better,
To make you smile again.

If you need a shoulder to cry on,
I won't mind your pouring tears;
Just you let me mop them up,
Or I may even share those tears.

Need someone to talk to?
I'll always be here.
Don't worry, your secret stays with me,
As though they'd never left your lips.

No matter what, where or when,
I'll be there when I can;
So don't you hesitate
In letting me through your heart's gate.
