True Friend <br />by Barbara Lynn Terry <br /> <br /> <br />When you are feeling so afraid <br />there is always one who can save the day <br />someone you called today <br />and told you, 'I am on my way.' <br /> <br />This person listened and heard what you had to say <br />and didn't grunt and groan and hang up the phone <br />but calmed you down by saying 'I am on my way' <br />and these words calmed your fears away. <br /> <br />There are many like this person in the world <br />who will laugh, dance, and twirl <br />across the danceroom floor of life <br />to help you chase away all the strife <br />that has made you miserable and sad. <br /> <br />Who is this person that is so dear to all of us? <br />Who is it that waited as we stepped off of the bus? <br />Who is this person who hugged and showed us they cared? <br />Who is this person who makes us unaware? <br />Who is this person who comes to your rescue, <br />with only thoughts of urgency for you? <br /> <br />We call this person at the days end, <br />our one and only <br />true friend.<br /><br />Barbara Lynn Terry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/true-friend-9/
