FRIENDSHIP POEMS

I feel your friendly presence
From time to time it comes
Perhaps as a fleeting smile
Or in the beauty of a setting sun.

The way you touch me over time
Is a pleasure I can't deny
And your friendship that lives within
Will be with me till the day I die.

One Day We Met On The Internet

One day we met,
On this internet,
On our keyboards we typed away
The things we had to say,
We chatted about our lives
Our triumphs and our strifes
Little did we know
We would let our feelings show,
In each other we have grown to care
To each other we are always there,
I am so that glad we met
On the internet
We have a friendship that is true,
I am thankful that I met you.

To My Email Friend...

You're someone I’ve come to know,
With a smile so bright and sweet.
It represents your lovely heart.
I’m pleased that we could meet.

Your love for God shows,
The love you feel inside.
You share with those, you come to know,
These feelings you can’t hide.

I’m grateful for your light that shines.
It brightens all my days.
I pray you feel the love I give,
In meek and humble ways.

Let Me In

You are a lonely soul
searching for a friend
I am here to help you
If you'll only let me in

You feel the need to shoulder
all the burdens on your own
I am here to help you
If you only let me in

I see you struggle every day
and you want to give it up
I am here to help you
If you'll only let me in

So search no further for that friend
and shoulder the burdens alone no more
struggle not...for I am here
for I have let myself in

Sunshine

Running through the meadow
Laughing at the sky
opening our hearts
letting sorrow fly

Picking up the flowers
strew along our way
Blessing all the sunshine
Warming up our day

Laughter dancing gaily
Freeing all our woes
Feeling soft and dewy grass
In between our toes

Sunshine warming deeply
All our hidden fears
soaking up our heartaches
Drying all our tears

Hand in hand we wandered
across the lonely field
Showing a heavy harvest
With happiness its yield

My Truest, Most Best Friend

A friendship given from the heavenly sky,
Is surely destined to fly.
It will fly beyond the heavens up above,
Into the valley of friendships love.

Though we are an ocean apart,
He is always deep within my heart.
Forever and always my loving pal,
I confess my love right here, right now.

Together we shall soar in the deep blue sky,
There, we will reveal every secret and lie.
Hand in hand to never part,
Held within each other's hearts.

Our friendship is more than one could think,
Our hearts are heavy that they sink.
True friends until the very end.
He is my truest, most best friend.

Forever Friends

Promised by our pinkies
Sworn by our hearts
Forever we'll be friends
Never will we part
I'll be there for you
If you'll be there for me.

I couldn't have made it through
Not without you
Through thick and thin
Loneliness and sin
You were always there
It just isn't fair.

Why did you leave me
Why can't you see
I am lost without you
And our friendship, too.

Promised by our pinkies
Sworn by our hearts
Forever we'll be friends
Never will we part
I was there for you
And you were there for me
Together we are friends
Forever you and me.

Fate

A true friendship unexpectedly and innocently found online,
Who would have ever known that we would find this.
Sharing thoughts and life experiences learned through time,
It was then discovered that this true friendship was a welcomed wish.

Somehow, this friendship came to a quick ending,
Unknown and unseen to both who have come together from afar.
Circumstances were unavoidable and important matters needed attending,
All that was left were the wishes made night after night upon every lucky star.

Many years passed and life changed, some for the good and some for the bad,
Struggling to find a reason for existing and longing for a love so true.
Wondering why life was full of so many unanswered questions and feeling so sad,
Heart heavy and empty; a void that was ever so blue.

Then one day, a familiar sight appeared out of nowhere,
Could it be? Is this real? Time to quickly say hello and not hesitate.
Finally, a wish was being granted, so true and sincere,
It is my long lost friend who I thought was gone forever
and has been brought back to me...
this must be FATE!!!

True Friend

A true friend is God's treasured gift
that money cannot buy.

A loved one who will be always there
to lend me an ear when I need to be heard.

Pat my back to let me know
it's going to be all right
or that I did great.

Hold my hand when I'm about to fall.

Share with me life's triumphs and failures.

One with whom I can dare to be myself,
with whom I can show my all.

True friendship is love
that can surpass pain and sorrow,
no matter how deep...

My friend, I hold you close to my heart.

And for as long as my mind can think
and my heart can beat,
we will never be apart...

Sitting Under A Rainbow
I’m sitting under the rainbow
Sick of chasing pots of gold
looking up from way down low.

Some will say I gave up on my dreams,
But you know its not so bad here,
Looking up at coloured seams.

Chasing that elusive pot
doesn’t seem so important
for I found I have the lot.

Friends colour my pathway,
Prisms of internal light,
A different sort of pay.

So I will sit under my rainbow
Enjoying waves of colour
Knowing it will never go.

Let me be a bright stripe
In the rainbow of your life
Forget internal strife
Let rainbows light your life.

Things That Make Me Happy
All the colors of the rainbow,
All the pinks, and greens, and blues.
Are so special when the sun hits them,
As it catches all their hues.

Gentle breezes blowing,
As the wind is swirling 'round.
Just like little tiny fairies,
As they dance onto the ground.

Little baby bunnies,

And little ducklings too.
Are so soft and cute and cuddly,
With their fur so soft and new.

Dancing little raindrops,
As they fall unto the ground.
Kissing petals of the flowers,
As it spreads their scent around.

Bright and twinkling stars,
As they sit in the sky at night.
Hung with silverly moon beams,
As it's ever oh so bright.

Feeling all these special things,
Just reminds me about you.
All the things that make me laugh and smile,
And the friendship of us two.

Friendship

If the world should fall
I wouldn't fear
cause I feel safe
whenever you are near.

It might sound silly
but I know it's true
No matter what everyone says
I belong with you.

You're my best friend
You were from the start
Together we stand strong
and we shall never part.

We found a friendship
so powerful and true
That I know it'll last forever
And I hope you know it too.

Please Look A Little Deeper
Please don't judge me by my face,
By my religion or my race.
Please don't laugh at what I wear,
Or how I look or do my hair.

Please look a little deeper
Way down deep inside,
And although you may not see it,
I have a lot to hide.

Behind my clothes, the secrets lie.
Behind my smile, I softly cry.
Please look a little deeper,
And maybe you'll see,
The lonely girl inside me.

Please listen carefully to her,
She'll show that she's insecure.
Please try and be a friend to her,
And show her that you care.

Please just get to know her,
And maybe you'll see,
That if you look deep enough
You'll see the real me.

My Greatest Blessings

In my life, God has granted me a blessing few can claim,
The riches were my many friends who into my life they came.
Some were family members like my mother oh so dear.
But most were people that I met, many every year.
No matter where life sent me, what city I called home,
I made life long friends and never felt alone.
My friends are there for me to listen and to care.
At times life wouldn't have been worth living if my dear friends were not there.
I could name them all one by one, a volume it would fill,
But they know who they are and that I love them and I always will.
I hope some day when the Lord I go to see,
He will grant just one more blessing,
And let my friends dwell next to me

Best Friends

As I sit here and think
About what we've been through,
I realize my life
was better off with you.
We were the best of friends
We were always together.
We said we'd be friends
Now and forever.
I miss those days
We used to talk and ride bikes,
I even missed those days
When we had all those fights.
Every friendship has their share
Of arguments and fights,
But I miss
All those long, long happy nights.
We used to sit there and talk
For hours on end,
Because you were
My very best friend.
Now here we are
Separated and free.
But of course I am wishing
That we could still be
Best friends for life
Like it was planned,
But now all I can do
Is offer my hand.

Forever Friends

Friends we are, forever friends we'll be,
Wherever we are, you're right beside me.

I hope we stay friends 'til the end of time,
And whenever that is, our friendship will still shine.

You mean the world to me, I hope the same with you,
You're always helping me, whatever it takes you'll do.

Now that we're growing older, changing our ways,
I know we won't lose our friendship-I hope I never see that day.

So to every one of my friends, you mean the world to me,
Friends we are, forever friends we'll be.

Best Friends

From the day I met you,
I felt the connection,
Through your love, laughter,
Concern and affection.

Best friends
We were to soon become
Sharing tears, secrets
And having fun.

A friend like you
Is hard to find,
someone so alike,
We almost share the same mind.

I hope for us
To never part,
As close as we were,
From the very start

Winter's Friend

A winter's friend comes now and then
to turn your grey skies blue
like a special angel from up above
sent down to comfort you.
Your winter's friend will hold your hand
and make you smile again
brush away your tears, kiss your cheek
and your broken heart amend.
Your winter's friend will call you up
spend late nights on the phone
and knows when to take a step back
when you feel like being alone.
You'll meet together, laugh and sing
off note a tune or two
a little secret that you'll keep
between the two of you.
But seasons come and change
and spring will rearrange
so you winter's friend must melt away
just like the snow caps do.
And here comes your spring friend
a brighter day anew,
and as sure the sun will rise
seasons change to no surprise.
And one day when you're sad and blue
your winter's friend will be there for you.

Our Friendship

Thank you for our friendship
For it means so much to me,
Your kindness and understanding
And loving ways you share so free.

Thank you for being beside me
When I needed someone that cared,
And thank you for all your loyalty
For the times together we shared.

Thank you for our friendship
For it's something even money can't buy,
Thank you for holding me tightly
When there was a need I had to cry.

Thank you for always smiling
When I couldn't smile at all,
And thank you for boosting my ego
For the times I felt so small.

Your friendship I cherish so deeply
So this message to you I send,
May God bless and always watch over you
And may you always remain my friend...

Angels Hugging Angels

Have you ever found a friend that just touches you deep inside
You feel a special bond that you simply cannot hide
You give them a piece of your heart, a view of what you are
Sometimes they live close to you, sometimes they live too far.

It really doesn't matter, you were friends from the start
Soon you realize their memory is a piece of your heart
You feel like they're an angel, placed here just for you
You are always amazed at the sweet things that they do.

You don't have to see them or talk to them every day
To know that God has sent them in His own special way
How else could you explain, this friendship and deep love
It must be an angel, sent from heaven above.

How can you love someone you've never really seen
The question you may ask, Is this just a dream?
Soon you realize, your feelings are quite sincere
Your friendship will continue year after year.

Funny when you talk you both seem to disagree
I think you're the angel and you think it is me
When you really look at it, you have to smile and say
The touching of our souls has taken place again today.

Tonight as I said my prayers, I prayed for my friend
I could not hardly wait until we talked once again
For God showed me the answer, it was really quite simple
A soul never sees a face, it would not recognize a dimple.

The feeling of love one feels for another friend
The feeling of wanting to be with each other again
Is the inner joy, that God places there
The love one feels on top of heaven's stairs.

So if you are lucky and you have found such a friend
Remember it is God, who lives deep within
It is God's wishes, to one day look to see
Angels Hugging Angels, perhaps it's you and me.

A Real Friend

If I could take a minute
To help you understand
I am a better person
Because you are my friend.

And it really doesn't matter
If we're together or apart
For I swept you up into my hands
And placed you in my heart.

And if at any moment
You ever start to doubt
There's a special bond between us
That I can't live without.

You truly are the answer
To many of my prayers
When I told God I needed
Someone who really cares.

Someone to stand beside me
To help comfort and to cope
To remind me that there's always
Some room for one to hope.

You've helped me through some things
That no one could help me through
I never knew what friendship was
Until I first met you.

And if I had one simple wish
It would surely be
That God would keep you in my life
Throughout all eternity.

And now I hope you realize
Just how much you mean to me
You are the definition
Of what a real, true friend should be

What It Is

It ain't the things you got;
It ain't the things you do;
It ain't the things you're not;
It's just because you're you!

It ain't about worldly treasure;
It ain't about a piece of art;
It ain't about anything you can measure;
It's about what's in your heart!

What it is ...
Is a friend, tried and true,
That's what I found when I met you!

Count Your Friends

It is not wise to count your friends
on a bright sunny day.
When the sky is blue
and smiles come so easliy.

Instead wait for a storm,
when the clouds are dark
and the day grows cold.
Laughter is not heard
in your heavy heart.

Then when a friend comes
and stands beside you
and lifts your spirits to the sky
and laughter is in your heart,
he or she deserves the name...
"FRIEND"

Thank you, my Friend,
for braving the storms with me
and for making the sunny days
so much brighter.

GOD'S GIFT

One day when God felt generous,
He looked down at me and smiled,
"Since I feel so magnanimous,
I'd like to give you something, child."

He asked me what I wanted,
I said, "Oh, really nothing more,
You've done so much already."
He said, "That's what God is for."

"You have been pretty good," He said,
I know there's not much that you seek,
I will pick a little something,
Just to make your life complete."

With great anticipation,
I looked forward to my gift,
I wondered what God had in mind,
That would give me such a lift.

"This gift," God said, "You realize,
Bears some responsibility,
So, if you accept my present,
You must be willing to agree...

"To offer unconditionally,
A section or a part,
Of more than half of you,
The larger portion of your heart."

"Okay, God," I answered,
"Since in You, I always trust,
I'll meet your obligation,
In the manner that I must."

To myself, I thought, wow, what a gift,
For so much of me, God's asked,
Now what could be so valuable,
That my share was more than half?

With both hands I sought my gift,
I still did not have a clue,
Then God put your hand in mine,
And said His gift to me was YOU!

Friends

Funny how when you meet someone -
you never really know,
if they are going to stay around -
or suddenly just up and go.

Rarely do you know ahead -
how important they may be,
will it turn into a friendship -
on that you must wait and see.

Interesting also is the way you met -
was it planned or just by chance.
It could happen on the Internet -
or at a summer's dance.

Everyone has an opportunity -
to have an impact on your life.
As an enemy or a lasting friend -
or perhaps a future wife.

Never underestimate -
how important you may become.
For if you take a friend for granted -
you might end up feeling numb.

Depends too what you’re looking for -
it may be just a fling.
But be careful how you treat them -
or trouble is what it will bring.

Someday we may understand -
how important friendships really are.
And if compassion replaced anger -
we really could go far.

Yes, Friends are strangers we’ve yet to meet
and they may come from anywhere.
Always keep compassion in your heart
and let them know how much you care.

Special Friend

Friends are those we care about -
who touch our very soul.
They can take the shattered pieces -
and once again make us whole.

We may not know just how this is -
or why they even care.
Just knowing they are part of you -
makes them so very rare.

Always follow that voice inside -
He will never steer you wrong.
And listen closely to His message -
comes across just like a song.

The sound you hear is from God above -
telling you, you are right.
Never listen to those who doubt you -
continue with His fight.

Many are chosen but never hear -
some don’t know where to start.
But those who hear know the answer -
He lives inside your heart.

And just by listening you understand -
you’re part of a special team.
And the message spoken is simple -
always follow your dream.

Inside us all is another part -
that can sometimes feel like a hole.
But it’s there he stores the answers -
it’s where you keep your soul.

Protect it well from everyone -
cause you really never know.
The devil can try to steal it -
but with His help you’ll never let go.

Loneliness is another tool -
the devil keeps in his bag of tricks.
And those who are the weakest -
are the ones on who he picks.

So always keep your faith in God -
He’ll always be at your side.
Never think he has left you -
and the devil will have no where to hide.

You are my new found inspiration -
my faith in you will always shine.
At last I found a special friend -
who I’m proud to say is mine.

And should you start to falter -
and need a reminder of who you are,
just call on your friend across the sea -
from you I’ll never be far

My Heart to Yours

In my heart there are many hidden places.
It is all filled with very many faces.

If you visit there you will see.
A special place I have saved for thee.

I see your suffering and share your pain.
I certainly wish we were well again.

I know and feel what you go through.
Because I have gone to that place too.

It is not for us to question why?
Many a tear we will cry.

We suffer some days more than the rest.
We try to show others our very best.

We don't want sympathy.
Not from our friends or family.

We just need them to understand.
What we have to try to withstand.

We no longer can do what we've done before.
Everything now for us has changed once more.

Yes, we are a little depressed and sad.
Remembering, we miss what we had.

We have had to give up many things we enjoyed.
Now we are among the list of unemployed.

It takes away our independence and cheer.
That we enjoyed in our yesteryear.

Please all join me in this new life.
Let's not look back to our strife.

Let's look ahead to a new adventure.
Many new things for us to venture.

Remember you're not really alone.
There are disabilities in every home.

So when you 're down and need a friend.
Email me or perhaps send an IM.

Just think if we weren't as we are,
We would not have met, for we live afar!

So isn't it nice to have AOL.
So we can share our hearts. "Isn't this swell?

What's that I see upon your face? "A Smile?"
To know you've had a friend here, all the while.

So if you are lonely, depressed or sad.
Make this your time to be Glad!

Just remember, I am here for you.
Perhaps even to write a poem or two.

To send you from My Heart to Yours.
To print out and place in dresser drawers!

Pull them out when ever the need.
A smile will grow from this seed!

Singing in the Shower

There's so many things I'd like to tell you
But this is just me talking to myself
My thoughts are blown in the wind
Completely incoherant to you
But so full of meaning for me
How could you possibly understand?
People come and go in my life
To share a part of it with me
Then they go again leaving me more
Enriched by their presence
And a little sadder
For not having known them a little longer
But I'm just singing in the shower
Everyone listens but no one hears

THE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS

We meet on-line to have a great time....
We laugh and we giggle and smile at our screens,
We sit back and wonder what this all means.

We surf the Web, we travel afar,
We span thousands of mile without a car.
We watch conversations flowing on the screen,
We tell jokes and stories and know what they mean.

What are we looking for? Where's the attraction?
How can we do this and get satisfaction?
Who are we? Why are we here?

We are "the Circle of Friends", made from a chain.
And we're here because friendship is what we gain!
Born on-line formed by few,
We had no idea just what to do.

So we are linking our pages, first one then two,
And wonder where we'll end up when we are through?
The Circle will spread, like a wild vine,
It will breathe and whisper like the winds of time.

We are the Circle of Friends, made from a chain,
All of our motives are exactly the same.
Searching for friendships all over the lands,
Linking our pages is like holding hands.

We are 'the Circle of Friends', made from a chain,
A chain of cable and wire without an end.

I FOUND YOU!

Somehow in this great big world
I found my way to you
My friend across the computer lines
my heart, my soul, that's who.

You try to make me smile
with the mail you send my way.
You never fail to drop a line
each and every day.

Whenever I have hurried home
with something, I must share,
I find it just so comforting
that you are always there.

Encouragement you give me
and a friendship that is true.
I'm glad my soul while reaching out
found someone like you.

I HAVE A LITTLE GARDEN

No flowers will you find;
Instead you'll see the friendships
That I have made online.

They grow from something other
Than normal flowers do.
They thrive on love and support
And understanding too.

This special little garden;
No matter rain or shine,
Is always in bloom;
This special place of mine.

It's filled with fun and laughter;
Where happiness abounds.
This lovely garden echoes
Many joyful sound.

I would like for you to know
That you are planted here
In my "Friendship Garden";
Our hearts are always near.

Dearest Friend

Friendships are a strange odd lot
In different shapes and sizes
Just when you get them figured out
They're still full of surprises
There're those you couldn't live without
who put your mind at ease and
Of course there are the other kind
The kind there is no pleasin'
With ego's bigger than their minds!
Self-centered's what they're all about
We choose to keep the nicer kind
And glean the others out
All in all we're never sure
How well we really know em'
Sometimes it sure don't take too much
To feel an ill-wind blowin
Sometimes the battle rages
On jealousy and rival
To live on some streets you must be
An expert on survival
So much more common are the lanes
Of peace and harmony
Where neighbor helps his neighbor
In loving tranquillity
It seems it's true in cyberspace
Most folks are just the same
With unseen but cherished faces
And funny little names
