To have a friend is to hear a melody reek amidst a veld.
To place your eggs of hope on the selvage of a replete basket.
To have a friend is to believe.
To have a friend is to entrust.
To have a friend is to coil your love on a broken spool.
To wear her scars and pour your heart on the flame of her burdens.
To have a friend is to love.
To have a friend is to be loved.
To have a friend is to cultivate a bond on the barren grounds of earth.
To sow a family on the fecund realm of your heart.
To have a friend is to care.
To have a friend is to be blessed.
