Words of Friendship Vol. 2

Only a friend can tell you your hem is down,
or that you've got a smear of toothpaste on your face,
or that you're wearing odd shoes..

You manage alone to fall down, but it takes friendly hands to get up..

If a true friendship can be found, cherish it like a fine gem.
Polish it, go out of your way to keep and protect it.
Keep it safe, but let it shine for itself.
It will grow and grow..

A friend is the only one allowed to say "I told you so"

Friendship can mean being there, writing a letter or making a telephone call.
It can be wispy, ephemeral, solid or pragmatic, last a lifetime or a week.
It can leave bitterness or stay in memory like a warm, bright gem.
Nothing replaces friendship, not money, power, beauty, possessions or fame..
