How is your Friendship Garden?
Are you building, every day. . .
A sweet bouquet of flowers
To scent another's way?
Are you filling days with compliments
and building self esteem
Fulfilling someone else's joy,
A handshake across the moments
to show someone you care
Can turn a stranger's loneliness
into a perfume, rare. Planting seeds of love throughout with a caring, sturdy hand
Will blaze a friendship rainbow
across this weary land
So with arms stretched out in friendship
each one doing his own part,
You will build a sweet aroma
from the garden of your heart.
