A Friend's Pledge
A Friend's Pledge
Take a seat and rest you weary soul on my stage
matters not your great troubles or age
cast off those shadows that chase you down
I'll sell them off to a wandering clown!
Award me the gifts of your anger and grief
size means nothing I can still give relief
with words of faith and very good cheer
laced with conviction, nothing to fear!
Load me up with scandals falsely laid upon you
I can very easily handle a dozen or two
so wrap 'em up tied so nicely in a ribbon
they will be well recieved that's a given!
And why not agree to do what I now so plead
I have the blessings ready you so greatly need
look at it as a start , a means to a good end
for are we not equally generous and very good friends!

Friendship is a treasure often far more valuable that rubies
and gold!
A blessed man is he that can say he truly has even just one
great and true friend!
Some are greatly blessed with more.
