one true friend

for apple, my best friend in the whole world

A true friend is like a rare gem

too valuable to lose.

too difficult to find.

amidst the high and low tides

of one’s life,

there is someone whom

you can count on,

every minute, every second

of the day.

Moments spent are too precious

needs to be cherished,

because it is not a fake.

Only few people are fortunate

to have one true friend

in one’s life.

I consider myself  one of the few

who managed to find a gem

For life.

Love this! A military wife with a military family, I've been blessed with more then one. But they all fit perfectly with your poem.

Now I understand what you mean by a true gem! I'm glad we both have one!

Very nice flow and you keep message what you try to say we'll done on this. Find true friends can be sometimes impossible but is does happen. At my life I was lucky enough to always meet with someone who just don't share same interest but also completely understand who really I am. I am very happy you have friends as well.

I love your convincing message & we can feel how grateful & appreciative you feel about your friend. I'm happy for you, becuz very few of us have this experience, or it doesn't last long enuf. Anyone would be honored to have a poem like this written about their friendship in your life. I wouldn't change your poem at all, but I would like to offer an idea for future writing . . . it would be good to engage the senses more . . . people are curious to see & feel & hear & touch & smell how this friendship might be. You've kept things in a more cerebral realm, which is crystal clear & relatable, but a balance with the physical realm is also a good thing to develop in our writing (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
