I like my new friend, <br />I think he’s so sweet, <br />He’s always so calm, <br />Whenever we meet. <br /> <br />He doesn’t judge, <br />He’s really so neat, <br />He makes me feel good, <br />Whenever we meet. <br /> <br />He doesn’t mind, <br />However I greet, <br />He stays so patient, <br />Whenever we meet. <br /> <br />I always feel that, <br />He says, “Take a seat, ” <br />“Off load all your worries.” <br />Whenever we meet. <br /> <br />He always seems fair, <br />No, he doesn’t cheat, <br />He’s so unbiased, <br />Whenever we meet. <br /> <br />But now, <br />Here’s a problem, <br />This new friend of mine, <br />Although always listens, <br />Chooses to decline. <br /> <br />To give me his thoughts, <br />His views and his fears, <br />He doesn’t guide me, <br />Or wipe off my tears. <br /> <br />His patience is useless, <br />When I’m in a spot, <br />He doesn’t do anything, <br />When things get hot. <br /> <br />He just swims around, <br />In that round shaped dish, <br />What use is this friend, <br />My charming pet fish?<br /><br />Aisha Sherazi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-perfect-friend/
