A Friend in Need, Is a Friend Indeed

By Bea Williams

Friends are far, friends are near.

Friends will be there to lend an ear.

They listen, laugh, and care,

But most of all, they're always there.

Through thick and thin, up and down,

Your true friends are always around.

For treats, hugs, and real big smiles,

They'll travel to you from several miles.

They'll always be there to hold you tight.

Anytime, no matter if it's day or night.

You really know when your friends are sincere

When they always show up to lend their ear.

A Poison Tree

By William Blake

I was angry with my friend;

I told my wrath, my wrath did end.

I was angry with my foe:

I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I watered it in fears,

Night & morning with my tears:

And I sunned it with smiles,

And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night.

Till it bore an apple bright.

And my foe beheld it shine,

And he knew that it was mine.

And into my garden stole,

When the night had veiled the pole;

In the morning glad I see;

My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

City Streets and Country Roads

By Eleanor Farjeon

But the country has roads.

In the country one meets,

Blue carts with their loads

of sweet smelling hay,

And man golds and grain,

Oh, take me away

To the country again:

In the city one sees Roof

Big trams rattle by,

And the breath of chimneys

That blot out the sky,

And all down the pavements

Stiff lamp posts one sees-

But the country has hedge rows;

The country has trees.

As sweet as the sun

In the country is rain,

Oh, take me away

To the country again!

Vain and Careless

By Robert Graves

Lady, lovely lady,

Careless and gay!

Once when a beggar called

She gave her child away.

The beggar took the baby,

Wrapped it in a shawl,

“Bring her back,” the lady said,

“Next time you call.”

Hard by lived a vain man,

So vain and so proud,

He walked on stilts

To be seen by the crowd.

Up above the chimney pots,

Tall as a mast,

And all the people ran about

Shouting till he passed.

“A splendid match surely,”

Neighbours saw it plain,

“Although she is so careless,

Although he is so vain.”

But the lady played bobcherry,

Did not see or care,

As the vain man went by her

Aloft in the air.

This gentle-born couple

Lived and died apart.

Water will not mix with oil,

Nor vain with careless heart.
