~ Who A Friend Can Be ~

 


I’ve often sat and wondered
just who a friend could be,
people who I already know,
and are so close to me?


Yes, they are my friends
so special, warm, and true,
but people I don’t even know,
they also can be my friends too.


Perhaps they are the drifters
traveling the country side,
or the homeless in the streets,
who have no food to buy?


What about the farmer
who plants and grows our food,
can’t they also be a friend
to folks like me and you?


What about the lonely waitress
in the Bar and Grill,
workings sixty hours,
just to pay her bills?


How about the greeter at Wal-Mart
who meets us at the door?
“Good evening, how are you,
haven’t we met before?”


What about the teacher
the knowledge they do impart,
so our children will be smarter,
in mind and in heart?


What about the carpenter
so genius in his craft,
and the telephone linemen?
I wouldn’t want his task.


There are so many people
who we don’t even see,
people who would make the best,
of who a friend can be!
