A Poem about Friendship

I found a map, and I follow the arrows because it said I would find a treasure. I found a shoebox, and this is what’s in it:

Friendship is a gift that we share

That shows how much we care

Friendship is a seed we plant

Watering it with love from the heart

Friendship is a guiding light

That shines from the heart and the eyes

Friendship is the hope we give

Helping others to grow and to live

Friendship is the love we share

Spreading happiness everywhere

Friendship is the kindness we extend

Used to heal and mend

Hearts, souls, and minds of our friends

Friendship is sharing and caring

Without comparing

One with the other

Realizing that sometimes we don’t have to be a sister, mother, father, or brother

To understand and help one another.

Friendship's bond is strong as a spider’s web

Silky and smooth, stronger than steel, they said

Spinning into the next generation

Reconnecting, reinventing, recreating

Weaving love, understanding, and happiness

Friendship is a gift

So, when you receive it,

cherish it, grow it

Never let it die!

Thank you for reading this piece. I hope you enjoyed it.
