Sometimes we walk down lonely roads <br />and the whole world seems against us. <br />Then we’ll have a chance meeting <br />and our world will change. <br />Through that meeting, we find a friend <br />to help us through the rough times in our lives. <br />A person who will take it upon themselves <br />to lead us through the troubles <br />that besiege our lives. <br />Lift us up when we are down; <br />bring a smile to our face <br />when all we can do is frown. <br />They take the burdens we are faced with <br />and persuade them to go away. <br />When we want to thank them, <br />all they say is don’t thank me <br />as you maybe able to do <br />the same for me someday. <br /> <br />21 March 2008<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lonely-roads-2/
