Four Years Without Them . . . Never!! A good friend will be there by your side through anything, says Morgan Smith. They are the helpers through those four years of never ending good and bad times in high school. Friends are what every person has and is. Randy Consla, a senior wrote a poem as an assignment in Mrs. Pearsall ' s English 12 class. This class was studying Canterbury Tales, by Geoffrey Chaucer. This is an example of a Chaucer style poem describing friends. There are some friends that you meet in school. Friends who are friends through and through. In size they may vary, some tall some short. Some appear lazy, others are more into sport. They are all different colors, some black some white. But because they are friends they will never, never fight. Friends may be courageous friends may know fear. Yet when together anxieties will not appear. Dependable are these friends when in need of help it ' s found. They will come to your assistance in a leaping bound. Some duties of a friend are to help and advise, To be very truthful and never ever tell lies. Some dress fancily others dress plain. But no matter how they look they are liked just the same. Respectful are they to others they see. Watchful of their words and kind they will be. Defaming and boastful most friends are not With quite opposite values are why they are liked a lot. Some may call you crazy others may call you a fool. For liking these people these friends in school, by: Randy Consla Lending a helping hand, Tina Woolfrey walks Marsha Turner to Biology after lunch.
