Definition: To a friend.
I've written here a little thought,
A thought from me to send
To you, and hope you will be taught
The meaning of a friend:
I do not wish to be pedantic,
I do not wish to harm,
And do not wish to be too frantic
Or cause too much alarm.
But I know that you have feeling
And wishes too to share,
So to you I am revealing
A heart-felt wish and care -
I wish for you to be my friend,
I care for you a lot,
I want to share the good and send
The bad to be forgot!
.A friend is a true ally,
Favourably disposed,
Not antagonistic or
Critically composed.
A friend is a warm heart,
And not a cynic's stone,
And always is there for you,
So you never walk alone.
A person whom one knows and likes,
A person whom one trusts,
Whose words are never driven spikes,
Whose words aren't dagger thrusts!
I wish for you to be my friend
And share whatever years
May bring along and to us send
A time of joy or tears.
I wish you not to take offence
At my audacious pen,
It is a thought I have sent hence
And will not send again.
A friend gives warmth and comfort,
The dictionary states it thus;
I've looked it up and so I wish
This definition's - US!
GIFTS
I give you demons, give you trolls,
I give you ancient magic scrolls,
I give you spells that make you king,
For those that like that kind of thing.
I give you colours, red and blue,
Of summer's green, and yellow too,
The hues of autumn, winter, spring,
For those that like that kind of thing.
I give you diamonds, pearls and jades,
I give you light that never fades,
And stars and moons and saturn's ring,
For those that like that kind of thing.
I give you good, I give you bad,
I give you sane, I give you mad,
I give you yang, I give you ying,
For those that like that kind of thing.
I give you song and dance and play,
I give you speeches, words to say,
I give you words that soar and sing,
For those that like that kind of thing.
I give you thoughts, ideas and dreams,
I give you sighs, I give you screams,
I give you angels on the wing,
For those that like that kind of thing.
I give you all these things and more,
From my imaginations store,
From me to you, these things I bring,
For those that like that kind of thing.
