Friendship Is A Priceless Gift
by: Helen Steiner Rice

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 the time of trouble
it is powerless to cheer,
it has no ears to listen
nor 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.
