Bonds Of Friendship


When days are filled with sunshine

how close we hold a friend.

It's good to share the laughter

and dreams that have no end.


And it's fun exchanging

some episode of fun

And finding much in common

in all that you have done.


But when the days are shadowed

and touched with pain or grief,

The bonds of friendship tighten

almost beyond belief.


The burdens aren't so heavy

when someone takes your hand,

And not a word is needed

for true friends to understand.


The world would be more lonely

in sunny hours or grey,

Without the bonds of friendship

to help us every day.
