What Does Friendship Mean? Poem by Elaine KarasShadle

A person who is there to lend a helping hand.
Someone who enjoys taking a walk or listening to some songs.
One who will offer a smile, one who will brighten a gloomy day.
It's a precious gift belonging to a select few.

A person who shares their happiness and their sorrows.
Someone who isn't quick to judge your faults.
It comes from the heart and grows through the years.
Friendship doesn't go away, it shares in your path of life's experiences.
