A Friend Is Like A Flower

A friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact,

or maybe like a brand new gate
that never comes unlatched.

A friend is like an owl,
but beautiful and wise.

or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
whose spirit never dies.

A friend is like those blades of grass
you can never mow,

standing straight, tall, and proud
in a perfect little row.

A friend is like a heart that goes
strong until the end.

Where would we be in this world
if we didn't have a friend?

A Place For You My Friend

There is always a place for you at my table,
You never need to be invited.

I'll share every crust as long as I'm able,
And know you will be delighted.

There is always a place for you by my fire,
And though it may burn to embers,

If warmth and good cheer are your desire
The friend of your heart remembers!

There is always a place for you by my side,
And should the years tear us apart,

I will face lonely moments more satisfied
With a place for you in my heart!
