“Friendship and Wisdom”
As you wind your way down life’s many trails,
Give it your best, and do it well.
When you’ve reached success, as many do,
Remember the ones who’ve helped you through.
Have many friends, be honest with them,
For they are your future companions.
A friend is a person, no money can buy,
A treasure most cherished all through life.
Don’t be fooled by persons who cheat,
They’re not your friends, they’re counterfeit.
A friend won’t lie, or alibi,
And he’ll walk with you that extra mile.
Use your wisdom to guide your skills,
To help you over the valleys and hills.
Friendship and wisdom, our most cherished possessions,
Life’s greatest assets, without exception.
