Friendship is a priceless gift

that cannot be bought or sold,

But its value is far greater

than a mountain made of gold

For gold is cold and lifeless,

it can neither see nor hear,

And in time of trouble

it is powerless to cheer

It has no ears to listen,

no heart to understand,

It cannot bring you comfort

or reach out a helping hand

So when you ask

God for a GIFT,

be thankful if HE sends

Not diamonds, pearls or riches,

but the love of real true friends.
