Having A Friend

If, he can speak up his mind,
And know when to shut up;

If, he can pat your back,
And kick your butt;

If, he can share a hearty meal.
And a good joke or a sunset;

If, he acts neither BIG, nor small, but just MeDiUm,
And lets you to be what you are;

Then he is the answer to your needs!
Because there is a difference between “having a friend” and having “A friend”
