Great friend

I have this great friend
so great u'd think he's pretend
i just met him today
he's great in his own way
he cheers me up when i am sad
and makes me happy when i am mad
he's the greatest friend anyone can ask for
to me he's not at all a bore
he writes poems that are great
he's so great any girl would be lucky to date
he's very very funny
he makes me laugh and smile
for quite awhile
i have this great friend
so great u'd think he's pretend
