Friendship Poem

I came across this poem and gave it to my friends as a parting gift at college.


Friends by Jean Kyler McManus

A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace.
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place.
