The Gift Of Friendship (poem)

[Teresa]

Friendship is a priceless gift
That cannot be bought or sold.
But it's values is far greater than
A mountian made of gold.

For gold is cold and lifeless
It can neithr see nor hear
And in the time of trouble it
Is powerless to cheer

It has no ears to listen
No heart to undertand
It cannot bring you comfort
Or reach out a helping hand.

So when you ask God for a gift
be thankful if He sends, not
Diamonds, pearls or riches
But the love of real
true friends.

This poem was brought to me by a friend when she visited Jamaica on a work vacation.
