Sold Out
This brand new friend poem comes in the form of a job advert for the perfect pal. Skills, salary, hours, and bonus all described!
Our witty and joyful best friend print makes the perfect gift for birthdays, Christmas, bridesmaids and thank yous. It is also suitable as a group gift like a hen 'do'.
The poem is actually a 14 line sonnet. It was written by award-winning Bespoke Verse poet (and Oxford graduate!) Joanna Miller, whose framed poems have featured in magazines such as 'VOGUE' and 'Easy Living.'
Whether it's the bonus of good advice or the lifelong satisfaction friendship brings, everyone will recognise the special bond that the 'The Best Friend Advert' describes.
The text reads:
The Best Friend Advert
Seeking caring candidate who thrives on interaction
To undertake a special role with lifelong satisfaction.
Skills required for this post: loyalty and discretion
The ability to laugh a lot and listen to confession.
This role would suit a counsellor, a match maker or host
A wine or chocolate lover might perform well in this post.
Experience is valuable (but not as much as trust)
Willingness to socialise and empathise a must.
There may be opportunities for travelling and shopping
For gossiping and giggling and possibly for bopping.
The salary is judgement free, the bonus is advice
The hands on help is statutory, (the benefits are nice).
Though meetings may be limited by distance or by chores
No application necessary, the job’s already yours.
