Friendship is like a flower
full of faith and power
If nourishment is not right
keeping it alive will be a fight
A flower needs sunlight and room
so its petals can blossom and bloom
Friendship needs love and caring
so there is always room for sharing
True friendship is a blessing from above
so nourish it with truth and love
