You're...

 My friend,

My companion,

Through good times and bad,

My friend,

My buddy,

Through happy and sad,

Beside me you stand,

Beside me you walk,

You're there to listen,

You're there to talk,

With happiness,

With smiles,

With pain and tears,

I know you'll be there, throughout the years!

You are all good friends to me and I am grateful to you.

 Remember, no man or woman is a failure who has a friend!

If I could sit on the porch with God, the first thing I would

 do is thank him for you....
