Friendship finds
A bond that's true,
I have no finer
Friend than you.

For even though
The gap is wide,
I know you're here
Right by my side.
When I am sad
You are a clown,
You cheer me on
When I am down.

We have a common bond
It's true,
I have no finer
Friend than you.

English Rose, how absolutely lovely, this verse. A simple declaration of friendship, trust, and gratitude...wonderful

English Rose this really touched my heart. I have a very dear and special friend in England and even though there is a big ole ocean seperating us he is always near me in my heart. Thanks for sharing this with us.

English Rose,

What a lovely sentiment in your poem. Rest assured that this special friend of yours feels the same way about you!

Thank you Meadowmuse....I was almost worried that this one was too simple, but I think I am pleased with it all the same. Sometimes the truest words are best said that way.

English Rose the poem was wonderful. I loved how you wrote it! The topic was great! I am having problems right now when it comes to friends and well, it's just good to see a poem about true friendship. I really miss the feeling.
