Friendship Poem by Ojok Isaac

Friendship: a love that can't contradict
A love that never goes a stray
For its wound are healed by forgiveness
Its joys are shared though it be white ant

Friendship: gives the first and the last choice
So its a road between no road
That stretches and widens by not heat but love
We give and receive for not our strength but our love

A friend should be your guard
Should cover your like a beautiful cloth
That your enemies may not heed that that thou keeep
Which are your death if to them be known

A friend who rebukes you not
Is that who hates you staunchly
For a correction from a friend
Is worth a billion tons of gold
