True Friendship

by Michael


It first begins with baby steps
and stumbles as it learns to walk.
It learns to speak, as babies do,
before it truly learns to talk.

Above all else is honesty,
for friendship never tells a lie.
It won’t repeat the words you speak.
It’s always there if you need cry.

Friendship forgives, when others won’t.
Unselfish, it must always be.
It only wants your happiness,
the best there is for you to see.

It will not steal and will not judge,
nor will it fear to compromise,
when disagreements come about,
for you’re the twinkle in its eyes.

You are the hands that it will hold,
through happy times and times of grief.
It’s your embrace that it will seek,
for reassurance and relief.

Friendship admires and compliments.
It makes a nest within your heart.
It thrives on laughter, love and smiles
and knowing that of you, it’s part.


Dedicated to all the wonderful friends I've made here at Passions.  Each one of you knows the meaning of True Friendship. Thank you for always being there for me.     

Stars will shine when I am gone
Earth will spin on as before
Gulls still race along the shore
Morning star, still kiss the dawn

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.

But die with all their music in them"

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

I want to die peacefully, in my sleep, like my grandfather, not screaming, terrified, like his passengers.
