A Poem A Day
Friendship is the color of the sun
It is the waves of the ocean
Rushing onto the sand
Then slowly retreating back to sea
Friendship is bright and cheerful
It is the lion and the lamb
The child with her puppy
Friendship is hands held together
It is a peace treaty between countries
That lasts forever
By Lillian, 6th grade
