The bonds of friendship gentle knots do make
That bind the blood and hearts with steadfast strength
When grateful souls in equal measures take
And give with gen’rous width and breadth and length.
For blood alone does not create one’s kin
For children find their homes in many hearts
And love’s not in one’s muscles nor one’s skin
But crafted by a village’s many parts.
Let not the fear of burden silence cause
For pain is always lighter when it’s shared
And let the fear of judgment give no pause
For gentle honesty is gentle care.
Dear friend, you are within my soul enmeshed
For friendship leaves this broken heart refreshed.
