To a friend

\nMake me smile when all around me there are sad and frowning eyes,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 Make me laugh when laughter’s miles and miles away.
\nBring me kisses when I’m lonely, be my friend through painful sighs,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 Just be there to sprinkle sunshine on my day.<\/p>\n
Bring me joy in rainy weather, take my hand to face the world;
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 Please don’t look across my head and walk on past.
\nIf it seems that I am weeping please don’t leave me tightly curled,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 Be my brakes when everything goes by too fast.<\/p>\n
I’ll be there for you, unlooked for, be your guard against the storm;
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 I would fight against a dragon by your side.
\nIf a blizzard blows inside you I’ll be there to keep you warm,
\n\u00a0 \u00a0 If you see me please don’t ever try to hide.<\/p>\n
There are days when skies are leaden, there are seas to rough to sail,
\nIf we face them all together then I know we’ll never fail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
