What Makes A Special Friend Poem by Rosemary Monahan

Someone you feel so close to
Someone who cares about you.
Someone you never want to hurt
Someone who doesn't at all flirt.
Someone you want for a friend always
Someone who's fun on snowdays.
Someone you love as family
Someone who makes you silly
Someone you know isn't a snob.
Someone who works at your job.
Someone you want to be there
Someone who's a friend forever.
People can have alot of friends
But only one of them is special.
I'm so anxious to tell you that
My very special friend is you.

(1983)
