The Best of Friends

                    By Jill Wolf

 

The best of friends,
Can change a frown,
Into a smile,
when you feel down.

The best of friends,
Will understand,
Your little trials,
And lend a hand.

The best of friends,
Will always share,
Your secret dreams,
Because they care.

The best of friends,
Worth more than gold,
Give all the love,
A heart can hold.

This poem is about how great some friends are. Wolf states that the best of friends 'understand, care, and give love' to their friends. Good friends are truely hard to find, and they are really special. You can rely them and count on them, thats why they are "worth more than gold." I really like the ryhme scheme in this poem. Each stanza starts with "The best of friends," and then the following second line and fourth line rhyme.  True friends are very important and this poem portrays how great they really are.
