Friends—
Net worth
Tallied in
Memories made
Not diamonds or gold
Bonds built through joy, through strife
Stories exchanged through the years
Laughter that echoes through tears
Time invested, no wealth could replace
Friends—net worth tallied in memories made
Friends—net worth tallied in memories made
Time invested, no wealth could replace
Laughter that echoes through tears
Stories exchanged through the years
Bonds built through joy, through strife
Not diamonds or gold
Memories made
Tallied in
Net worth—
Friends
Afterword:
In my home country, Jamaica, this entire poem is captured in this proverb—“Good friends better than pocket money”.
