Friendship Poems

Friends Are Angels

Our friends are like angels
Who brighten our days
In all kinds of wonderful
Surprising ways.

Their thoughtfulness comes
As a gift from above
And we feel we're surrounded
By warm, caring love
Friends are like angels

Without any wings
Blessing our lives
With the most precious things.

True Qualities in Friendship

You have a say and I have mine
we may not fully agree all the time
You don't have to meet my every need
that is a kindness, love indeed.

Your manner fosters special trust
not given to pride contempt or lust
That is a friendship that will work
where discontentment does not lurk.

Healthy Friendships

People are not always at their best
but on these qualities our friendships should rest:
Forgiveness when one speaks a word out of line
but it should not be necessary all the time

Some interests to be shared and ventured
Pleasant times that we can treasure__
that does not have to be without measure
And occasional time for adventure.

Great Friends

Great friends are such a treasure,
and are often far and few.
So when we count our blessings,
we count great friends, like you.

Loving families and true friends
have immeasurable worth.
And bring the most true happiness
that one can know on earth.

So we thank you for your friendship,
and we thank dear God above,
for giving us great friends like you,
to cherish, and to love.
