A Genuine Buddy
Good Hope Primary School cum Kindergarten, Fong, Sum Yi - 11
When there is a dark cloud in my heart,
There is someone who would never stay apart.
She is like a precious gift,
If not, a lantern ready to be lit.
That someone helps me when I am down,
When I tumble down to the ground.
That someone brightens up my day,
Enables me to fly freely faraway.
That someone shares my tears and give me care,
Gives me hugs like a cuddly bear.
That someone plays with me when I am bored,
On the swings, down the slides and so much more.
She gives me precious memories and moments
Has faith in me despite my lack of confidence
His name is Lola, she’s my best friend.
Our friendship is bewitched and it will never end.
