'Wherever I Go I Will Have A Friend' Poem by Michael Micmac Mccrory

‘Wherever I go I will have a friend’

You were a very good friend
When I was low
You got lower
So I could cry on your shoulder

You were a very good friend
When I was high
You offered me your shoulder
To climb on so I could get higher

It was you ears that listened
To my tales of woe
It was your ears that
Heard my confessions

It was your eyes
That saw my pain
It was your eyes
Through which I saw the future

You shared the bad times
You shared the good times
You were the tick of the clock
That showed me it was time

To be a friend like you
To be true and loyal
To be an ear and a shoulder too
To see that friendship helps one through

I want you to know I wanted to be there
Because I wanted to be by your side
I wanted to be like you
A true and loyal friend

Here lies a beautiful person
Who right up to the end
Remained a true and loyal friend
Who bravely went on ahead
So that I when I die and meet my end
Wherever I go I will have a friend
