A friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact,
or maybe like a brand new gate
that never comes unlatched.

A friend is like an owl,
but beautiful and wise,
or perhaps a friend is like a ghost,
whose spirit never dies.

A friend is like those blades of grass
you can never mow,
standing straight, tall, and proud
in a perfect little row.

A friend is like a heart

that goes strong until the end.
Where would we be in this world
if we didn't have a friend?

I apologise for the late posting of my Tea & Friendship Tuesday’s post.
My excuse…. life’s little unexpected surprises. My father hurt himself by a nasty fall last week which resulted in an intolerably painful dislocated neck. We have had our hands full looking after him. He is home from hospital now and doing much better and we pray that he will be up and running soon.

Have a lovely week my blog friends ♥
