  1. My Friends
    Poet Unknown

    I will not think that I have failed
    Or lived my life in vain-,
    If to my credit I shall find
    One friend to to be my gain
    And tho' the road in life is rough
    With mountains hard to climb;
    I find there's joy along the way.
    And the journey, it is fine.

    It there's a friend beside me;
    To cheer me with his song,
    To smile his understanding,
    When everything goes wrong;
    It gives me strength and courage,
    The mountains to ascend,
    And I find that life's worth living,
    As long as there's a friend.

    Then be not hasty when I'm gone.
    To say, I lived in vain
    The ghost of many failures
    Like monuments remain
    But when life's sun is sinking,
    And I reach my journey's end;
    Then count my earthly riches
    In the number of my friends.



    2. Poetry about best friends


  2. A Friend
    Poet: Lucy Larcom

    What is the best a friend can be
    To any soul, to you or me?
    Not only shelter, comfort, rest —
    Inmost refreshment unexpressed;

    Not only a beloved guide
    To thread life's labyrinth at our side,
    Or with love's torch lead on before;
    Though these be much, there yet is more.

    The best friend is an atmosphere
    Warm with all inspirations dear,
    Wherein we breathe the large, free breath
    Of life that hath no taint of death.

    Our friend is an unconscious part
    Of every true beat of our heart;
    A strength, a growth, whence we derive
    God's health that keeps the world alive.



  3. Best Friends We Will Be
    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer

    Friends we have been for a long time
    We have been thru many climbs
    Together we have had laughter and joy
    Remember the days when important things were toys.
    We have seen our share of hardship too
    But stronger and wiser we are after each issue.

    If I had to define what a best friend is
    I would point to you in happiness and bliss
    You're an example of what a best friend should be
    Sincere, honest and a bit crazy!
    Our friendship continues to grow
    And best friends we will be, forever I know
