Friendship's All About Respect

Friendship's All About Respect
By Franklin Price
4/7/2015

Friendship's all about respect
A meet a greet cause and effect
I don't know you you don't know me
Yet there is a commonality

We like to talk the subjects wide
Views apart or side by side
It matters not how we connect
Must for each other have respect

You have your right to have your view
I have my right to have mine too
Variety of thoughts abound
Discussion makes for common ground

The way we state our own belief
Can bring on stress welcome relief
Can bring together bonding more
Or sadly start another war

Words can hurt or heal the mind
The healing we should try to find
In all discussions to the end
If we're to keep a friend a friend 
 
When it comes to you and me
We can agree to disagree
I still like your company
You are still a friend to me
