Answer:
Friends and Flatterers
- William Shakespeare
The poem ' Friends and Flatterers ' written by William Shakespeare tells us that our true friends are not those who praise us in good times but those who help us in times of need.
According to the poet, a person who flatters you is not necessarily your friend. Their words are like the winds which come, go and change direction very easily. He says that as long as you are affluent, all will be your friend but when you need some help, no one will come up to help you. But a true friend will always be with you. If you are in sorrow, they will weep with you and will stay awake if you can't sleep, with every grief of yours he grieves too. These are the basic differences that must be kept in mind to segregate a friend from a flatterer.
The poem showcases the poet's disappointment, bitterness and realization of the dark side of the human nature.
