Friend In Deed Poem by Rose Kanana

Friend In Deed

Rating: 4.9


You call me when in need
You chat with me when in need
I receive your call to act on deed
When will you call in deed?
Your needs supersede my ability
Call me to check on me
I may need that more than your needs

Soon i will press Ctrl, Alt delete
And off you will be from my phone book
From my mind you will be out of oblivion
And from my life you will vanish
For friends are friends in need and deed
Deeds speak louder
Deeds complement true friendship

As usual the poetess has not minced her words which are quite powerful. i like the honesty in this poem in letting friends know that they need not be a burden. Thanks for sharing Rose.

The needs always outshine the deeds...some of us cannot tell the difference. Great piece.

Really, a real friendship should be more of deeds without monetary rewards after deeds. For friends are friends in need and deed Deeds speak louder Deeds complement true friendship - I loved these lines. Thanks for sharing Rose.
