Be a Friend - Inspirational Poem by Edgar Albert Guest | Read by Simerjeet Singh
Our next piece of poetry in the Poetry That Inspires series is dedicated to the spirit of friendship. It’s titled "Be A Friend" by Edgar Albert Guest.
Guest reminds us that it doesn’t cost much to be compassionate, kind, and helpful to others. That we all need friends in our lives and to be there for them, no matter what.
We hope you also have a bunch of special people in your life that you call friends. People who can lift you up when life knocks you down.
Make sure to let them know how important they are to you by mentioning them in the comments section below.
Have a great day ahead.

Be a Friend by Edgar Albert Guest
Be a friend. You don't need money:
Just a disposition sunny;
Just the wish to help another
Get along some way or other;
Just a kindly hand extended
Out to one who's unbefriended;
Just the will to give or lend,
This will make you someone's friend.
Be a friend. You don't need glory.
Friendship is a simple story.
Pass by trifling errors blindly,
Gaze on honest effort kindly,
Cheer the youth who's bravely trying,
Pity him who's sadly sighing;
Just a little labor spend
On the duties of a friend.
Be a friend. The pay is bigger
(Though not written by a figure)
Than is earned by people clever
In what's merely self-endeavor.
You'll have friends instead of neighbors
For the profits of your labors;
You'll be richer in the end
Than a prince, if you're a friend.
