Friends Like Horses Poem by Olubola Adepoju

Friends like horses
The best one can ever have
The best category of friends
Ever supportive; they bring out the best in a friend



Friends like horses
They anticipate life obstacles
Which they treat as fun and not challenges
This they do because they believe that they will always conquer



Friends like horses
Ever ready to fight the battle with a friend
They have a common goal as a friend
And go in the same direction



Friends like horses
They are not the jealous type
Who waste their precious time on negative emotions
They stay through



Friends like horses
They know and complement a friend's weakness
They pull hard with the strength like that of an horse
They see the strength through the eye of weakness



Friends like horses
They never allow their friends to bask in self-pity
Rather they will teach the friend how to get up
They are always there to help



Friends like horses
A constant reminder of the agreed goal
A perfect reflection of oneself
Like a mirror reflects oneself
