By June Hudy – Paradise Hill, Sask.
There is no way in this world
We can measure
the value of a friend;
Because to say
we can measure it
Would be like saying
We can measure
the volume of water
In the ocean;
Or the height
of the greatest tide;
Or the number
of stars in the galaxy.
Because a good friend
is priceless;
Beyond any measure
we can imagine.
Finding such a precious gift
Is like finding
a valuable pearl;
Once you do,
you hang on to it.
If you have such a friend,
Consider yourself
fortunate indeed.
Never let them go!
