Billy the Misunderstood Monster- A Poem

Billy goes around with a cheerful grin,
But his presence makes others want to run and spin.
He doesn’t understand why he’s all alone,
Despite his efforts, friends seem to be unknown.

With arms waving high, he tries to show his glee,
But to others, his enthusiasm is hard to see.
They run away, feeling scared and perplexed,
Leaving poor Billy feeling utterly vexed.

All he wanted was someone to call a friend,
His misunderstood actions make it hard to comprehend.
Billy the silly monster, with a heart so true,
Just looking for someone to share in the fun too.

Value in friendship

What quality do you value most in a friend?

When it comes to friendships, there are countless qualities that we might appreciate in our friends. However, if I were to pinpoint the most important quality I value in a friend, it would have to be trustworthiness. Trust is the foundation of any strong and lasting friendship. You can rely on, confide in, and depend on a trustworthy friend during both good times and bad.

Trustworthiness encompasses honesty, reliability, and loyalty. A trustworthy friend tells you the truth, keeps their promises, and stands by you when you need them the most. Knowing that I can trust my friends ultimately allows me to be open and vulnerable with them, creating a deep sense of security within the friendship.
