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 are you 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 not just someone To whom you say "hello"

A friend's a tender shoulder On which to softly cry,
A well to pour your troubles down And raise your spirits high

A friend's 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's 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
Soft and sad I answered "If lucky I have one."
