Why God Made Friends

God made the world with a heart full of love,
Then He looked down from Heaven above,

And saw that we all need a helping hand,
Someone to share with, who'll understand.

He made special people to see us through
The glad times and the sad times, too;

A person on whom we can always depend,
Someone we can call a friend.

God made friends so we'll carry a part
Of His perfect love in all our hearts.

RAINBOWS

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you.
And share with you it's beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea.
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me,
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be...what I know best,
a friend that's always there.

~Khahlil Gibran~

A friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact,
Or maybe like a brand new gate
that never comes unlatched.
A friend is like an owl,
both beautiful and wise.
Or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
whose spirit never dies.
A friend is like a heart that goes
strong until the end.
Where would we be in this world
if we didn't have a friend.

Poems about Lost FriendsLike any other kind of love, friendship can be lost within our lives due to neglect or anger or, sometimes, simply circumstances. However it is lost, we often lose a part of ourselves that can never quite be recovered.

My Friend

My Friend when I think of you.
I think of all that we've been through.
All the times we argue and fight,
I know deep inside that it isn't right.
I, then feel bad and alot of pain.
It feels like I've fallen from the sky like the rain.
I love you dear friend with all of my heart.
But now that you're gone I've fallen apart.
I'm getting better as the days go by.
I wish sometimes this was all a big lie.
I pray to you every night.
It's like you're my fire, a burning light.
My dear friend, I miss you alot.
I still wonder why you were put in that spot.
I know you're in a place much better than here.
Watching and helping me with all of my fear.
Our friendship my dear friend,
we will have to the end.
Friends til the end is what we will be.
Someday we'll be together,
together you and me.

I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts,
or fears. But I can listen to you, and together we will
search for answers.

I can't change your past with all it's heartache and pain,
nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now when you need me to care.

I can't keep your feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.

Your joys, triumphs, successes, and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,
and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship,
from your values, from me.
I can only pray for you, talk to you and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,
But I can give you the room to change, room to grow,
room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces
and put them back in place.

I can't tell you who you are.
I can only love you and be your friend.

A Boy and His Bear
by Dan Lukiv

Teddy bear, teddy bear,
Jumping on me,
With cute little body
All covered with hair,
How could you do this
To someone of three?
How could you do this
To someone like me?

Are you upset
I forgot you again,
Under my bed
For a week and a day?
Remember, a boy,
With such a wee brain,
Has many a toy
With which he must play.

But teddy! Don't cry!
You'll still be my friend!
We'll stay together
Right through to the end.
We'll cuddle and kiss
And hide under covers;
We'll fight and make up
Because we are brothers.

I'll never forget you
Ever again.
Come on, dear teddy,
Let's play with my train,
So dry off those tears
You silly old bear;
You're going to get moist
And ruin your hair.

I've told you once,
And I've told you twice,
I'll never again
Put you on ice.
But now that I look,
And now that I see,
You're falling apart
Right at the knee.

Oh teddy bear, teddy bear,
Look at you now.
You seams are so wide
As you sit and you stare.
Tell me what happened,
You silly old bear.
Tell me what happened,
And make me aware.

You mean I did that
By hugging
And kissing?
I squeezed you so much
You lost all your fat?--

Oh teddy bear, teddy,
We're getting nowhere.
Don't you know that
I really do care?
To stuff you and fix you
I really must try,
But should I tell Mummy
How you made me cry?

Could This Be Love??

Life was so easy,
just going through the motions.
I was cruising along,
not feeling any emotions.

No worries for anything,
and nothing really to do,
then out of the blue,
there came you.

Unavailable to me you were,
but it really did not matter,
for the love that you showed me,
became absolute flatter.

Sometimes I notice things,
like the twinkle in your eye,
like the burning of one star,
or like the spacious sky.

And then it makes me wonder,
could it be a message from above,
or could it be infatuation,
or could it be love?

A secret so strong,
on the edge so jagged.
How can I tell you
that my heart has run ragged?

You continue to tell me
that I know not what love is,
but give me some time,
for I feel it might be this.

So strong are my feelings,
that I try to cover and hide,
that I would actually consider
putting everything else aside.

I feel it deep down,
I feel so very alive.
When I am with you,
I feel like we stop time.

A moment of adrenaline,
hot like a burning stove,
could it be infatuation,
or could it be love?

Sometimes I have these feelings,
like an angel was sent just for me,
someone to lighten up my life,
baby, that angel you may be.

Into my heart,
these feelings have dove,
could it be infatuation,
or could it be love?

And would I really consider
for us to have an affair?
This hypothetical situation
is absolutley full of despair.

To give love a chance,
and jump in feet first,
and ignore all the consequences
that I know would make things worse.

And if it would ruin us,
and the friendship we have,
and the family that you have raised,
and the man that makes you so mad,

then what would be the purpose
of pursuing this endeavor,
just to see if our love is real,
and see if we can be together?

To destroy what we already have
would not make much sense,
for I love our friendship,
and the time that we spend.

And so it is not worth it,
just for one moment of bliss,
for us to indulge in pleasure,
not even for one little kiss.

But know deep in my heart,
lies a spot just for you.
You make me a better man,
so honest and so true.

I will be there for you,
through thick and thin.
I will give you encouragment,
for that is what makes a friend.

And maybe someday,
if things become right,
I will open up my heart,
and give no more fight.

Because I could definitely fall
madly, deeply in love,
with a woman like you,
sent from the Heavens above.

Butterflies in your stomach,
you are not the only one.
Could this be infatuation,
or could this be love?

Sometimes I ponder
what might and could have been,
had I the chance to meet you
way back when.

Only time will tell
what will come of all this,
but if we stopped spending time,
that is something I would miss.

I wrote this one special,
for someone in my life new,
all for this special person,
and that person is you.

You make me feel happy,
and whatever of this might come,
I don't think it's infatuation,
I think it might just be love.
