Friendship; old and new
Michelle Ritchie 1981 (Aberdeen)
Here’s to friends, both old and new,
I enjoy nothing more than having a chat….
But those I consider real friends are rare and few.
I treat everyone with a caring heart.
Please remember kindness is free,
Politeness is easy, not an art!
Do unto others as you want done to you.
It can be a quest..
You will make mistakes just be respectful and stay true!
