Let us show esteem to each other
Let us celebrate life
Let us value people that we meet
As we pass this way but once.

May we share a word softly spoken
And encourage those who pass by
Let our lives touch each tenderly
As we pass this way but once.

May we help and not hinder
Let friendship be without cost
Those who tolerate and then dismiss
Let us not be part of this.

Do then good toward somebody
Kindness and compassion leave
Should you ever once feel cold
Find this flame nearby for you...

hi goodguy, let friendship be without cost, things do cost i admit, but my thought is if the friendship is of such quality, then even if it costs, it's a sacrifice we gladly take on. thanks for the thought
