Friendship Poems
A Friend
by Gillian Jones
A person who will listen and not condemn
Someone on whom you can depend
They will not flee when bad times are here
Instead they will be there to lend an ear
They will think of ways to make you smile
So you can be happy for a while
When times are good and happy there after
They will be there to share the laughter
Do not forget your friends at all
For they pick you up when you fall

90. I often stop to think about where you might be
by Kea(ton) Campbell
I often stop to think about where you might be.
I stare into space and wonder about how we buried our dreams without saying a word.
And when the came and you said you were moving, I made sure to leave you first.
It's the insecurity of enjoying life alone that guts me to my core and rattles me deeper than bone.
I can't say I don't think about us 5 years ago.
Drunk under the stars with your arm as my pillow.
It wouldn't be true to say you didn't treat me right.
But it wouldn't be false if I said that sometimes when I was with you, I felt colder than winter's driest nights.

A Golden Chain
by Helen Steiner Rice
Friendship is a Golden Chain,
The links are friends so dear,
And like a rare and precious jewel
It's treasured more each year...
It's clasped together firmly
With a love that's deep and true,
And it's rich with happy memories
and fond recollections, too...

Youth And Age
by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Verse, a breeze 'mid blossoms straying,
Where Hope clung feeding, like a bee -
Both were mine! Life went a-maying
With Nature, Hope, and Poesy,
When I was young!
When I was young? -Ah, woeful When!
Ah! for the change 'twixt Now and Then!
This breathing house not built with hands,
This body that does me grievous wrong,
O'er aery cliffs and glittering sands

My friend once sighed
by Amy Michelle Mosier
My friend once sighed
That he watches planes fly by
And wonders where they’re going.
The world’s tempo beats on.
I, too, prefer to stop along
The way and watch a small thing.
I congratulate the weed
That grew from a wayside seed

Friends
by Jeremy Wheeler
Friends come and go
They ain't meant to last
You could aim for the future
But they remain in the past
A life lesson to be learnt at an early age

ear to eave
by Rikske Kessner
An outside world, ever closes in;
eavesdropping on young lovers,
envious in every kind of way—
so envious it could transform deserts,
if not for the voyeur's curse.
Intimacy reserved always
to two sets of eyes,
peering in and diving into
each other's perfect abyss;
