A gift, an heirloom, for a best friend.
The Perfect Friend
Friendships are so very important. A young college student wanted to give a special and meaningful gift to her best friend at college. She told me a little bit about their friendship and about her friend, and about the qualities in her friend that drew them together. College friends often are friends for life, and special relationships can develop in a college atmosphere in which there is intensity of study, an intensity of fun, and a variety of very interesting people.
“If I could choose what I should be
and then add something new,
I think I’d choose the best of me
and then I would add you . . .
If I could be the kind of friend
that every friend should be,
I’d choose to be just like you,
the perfect friend for me.”
I enjoyed writing this poem, and even though I didn’t know the recipient, it was fun learning a little about her and what qualities made for a great friendship. A couple of years after writing this poem, I was fortunate to meet the friend, and she was exactly as described to me by the giver of the poem! A very nice friend indeed! I also think that her friend will keep this heirloom forever.
