A Communication Poem
By Gretchen Fisch
We speak with kindness to our friends,
We’re kind until the end.
Be kind to friends and in return,
Kindness your friends will send.
Be true to those who truly care,
When life seems so unfair.
So love your friends with all your heart,
They’re there when you despair.
Be smart when choosing your close friends,
Don’t choose a fake or liar.
A friend who lies or stabs your back,
Is not what one desires.
And if you lie, I can’t deny,
Your friends will ask you “why”.
You must come clean, you must be true,
Friends are hard to come by.
But friends forgive, and life is short,
Don’t waste a single moment.
Losing friends who are meant to stay,
No friend is your opponent.
Love and kindness are free you see,
I hope you can agree.
And if you disagree with me,
Fine, But! Please don’t tell me!
