This poem is about what it takes to be a good friend. So many times friends are not true friends so this is a poem about what it takes to be a good friend.
A good friend is always kind,
Should always speak their mind,
Their compassion should never end,
That's what it takes to be a good friend.
A good friend is there for you,
They are real, they are true- blue,
Their compassion should never end,
That's what it takes to be a good friend.
A good friend will be there when you marry,
A heart full of memories, they will carry,
Their compassion should never end,
That's what it takes to be a good friend.
They'll be there if your mother dies,
They'll weep with you when you cry,
Their compassion should never end,
That's what it takes to be a good friend.
If a good friend you do find,
Make sure they treat you kind,
Understanding they shouldn't lack,
And they would never stab you in the back,
On top of everything always remember,
A best friend is forever.

I love this poem because it really discribs what a real best friend should be and alot of people dont understand what friends really are added up to be. I do. I've been hurt and disappointed and this poems says just about everything there is to say about a good friendship.
