Two people in one, one happy, one sad, Two sides of me one mad and one
glad. There is only one side I try to let show, My feelings inside the others don't know. I'm two people in one as strange as it sounds, The real me inside no one has found. writer: Unknown

Friends
The old man turned to me and asked
"How many friends have you?"
Why 10 or 20 friends have I,
And named off just a few ~

He rose quite slow with effort
And sadly shook his head

"A lucky child you are
To have so many friends," he said,

But think of what you're saying
There is so much you do not know

A friend is just not someone
To whom you say "Hello"

A friends a tender shoulder
On which to softly cry

A well to pour your troubles down
And raise your spirits high

A friend is a hand to pull you up
From darkness and despair...

When all your other "so called" friends
Have helped to put you there

A true friend is an ally
Who can't be moved or bought

A voice to keep your name alive
When others have forgot

But most of all a friend is a heart
A strong and sturdy wall
For from the hearts of friends
There comes the greatest love of all!!!

So think of what I've spoken
For every word is true

And answer once again my child
How many friends have you??

And then he stood and faced me
Awaiting my reply 

Softly I answered
"If lucky...... one have "I"

"You!!!!" http://weber.u.washington.edu/~ramirez/poem31.htm#poem

"Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes." -unknown

POETRY

3/21/98 Rainbows are red, Violets are blue, I really, really want, Too kiss you. The sky falls, The earth moves The sea makes waves And so do we. Friendship never fails But sometimes it startles me, The things we talk about I can finally let myself be Who I am Is what you see. Take it or leave it, And I am hoping, That you will take me.

These are the days you’ll remember

Never before and never since

I promise

Will the whole world be warm as this

And as you feel it

You’ll know it’s true

That you are blessed and lucky

It’s true that you are touched by
something that will grow and bloom in you

These are the days you’ll remember

When May is rushing over you with desire
to be part of the miracles you see in every hour

You’ll know it’s true that
you are blessed and lucky

It’s true that you are touched by something
that will grow and bloom in you

These are the days

These are the days you might fill with
laughter until you break

These days you might feel a shaft of light
make its way across your face

And when you do you’ll know how it was meant to be

See the signs and know their meaning

It’s true, you’ll know how it was meant to be

Hear the signs and know they’re speaking to you, to you.
