True Friends

Friendship is a precious gift

that can't be bought or sold.

but its value is much greater

than a mountain made of gold.for gold is cold and lifeless

it can neither see nor hear.

and in the time of trouble

it is powerless to cheer.



it has no ears to listen

and no heart to understand.

it can not bring you comfort

or reach out a helping hand.



so when you ask god for a gift

be thankful if he sends

not diamonds,pearl or riches

but the love of real, true friends!!!
