Take a cup of understanding
Add a smile that is warm and true;
Lots of sunshine, of course,
A dab of this will do.
Mix in some happy times
And secrets shared together;
Strengthen with real loyalty
Through fair and stormy weather.
Blend with deeds of thoughtfulness
A way of being nice;
Then warm with generosity
And top with good advice.
Serve with warmest memories
Of joy that knows no end;
And you'll taste the happiness folks know
Who have you for a friend.
