Friendship Poem

The Gift Of Knowing You

There are gifts of many treasures

For both the young and old,

From the tiniest little trinkets

To great boxes filled with gold.

But, put them all together

And they could not stand in lieu,

Of the greatest gift of all

The gift of knowing you.

When your times are filled with troubles

Sadness, grief, or even doubt,

When all those things you planned on

Just aren't turning out.

The Gift Of Knowing You

There are gifts of many treasures

For both the young and old,

From the tiniest little trinkets

To great boxes filled with gold.

But, put them all together

And they could not stand in lieu,

Of the greatest gift of all

The gift of knowing you.

When your times are filled with troubles

Sadness, grief, or even doubt,

When all those things you planned on

Just aren't turning out.

Just turn and look behind you

From the place at which you stand,

And look for me through the shadows

And reach out for my hand.

I will lift from you your burden

And cry for you your tears,

Bear the pain of all your sorrows

Though it may be for a thousand years.

For in the end I would be happy

To have helped you start anew,

It's a small price to pay

For the gift of knowing you.
