Storm Friends

Friends come and go
Like leaves in a storm

As brilliant as a flash of lightning
Friends leave an impression

Then when the storm is hard to bear
And you are at your wits end
Real friends stay true, like a mighty oak tree
While others may break away, like flowers not deeply rooted

Yet from these wild lessons we learn
And after we find the storm has passed
We also notice we have grown

Weather friends remain, or friends go
One thing always remains true
A storm will always show
The people you have surrounding you
