There are friends for various reasons
Though some last just a season
Keep the ones close by
Who can hear you when you sigh
Fair weather friends will be all around
They’ll try to close in when you are being crowned
But they will surely slip away
When you actually need them, just to stay
True friends are those who pick your vibes
And protect you from barbs and jibes
In your absence, they’ll even fight for you
Theirs is a friendship you’ll never rue
Treasure these gems
And their pain also share
For these are the ones
Who care, and are rare..
May you be blessed
With friends who are true
For these are so precious
But alas, so few
