Some friends you really have known forever.
From the days before you could sit up unassisted,
To your days noshing on finger foods in the Creeper room
Frolicking as tag-alongs at your sisters' social events,
So in tune that you showed up at school perfectly coordinated
Friends you spend your vacation with
And share your sippy cups with
Friends who are always up for a hug
Or a little push
Friends that keep you afloat
Who are always by your side
Cheering with you on the sidelines
Helping you reach for the stars balloons,
Brave the weather
and work on your masterpieces
Friends who will be silly with you
And with whom you can always be yourself.
May we all have such a friend.
