Poem: My Friend's Prayer
May my friendships always be 
The most important thing to me. 
With special friends I feel I'm blessed, 
So let me give my very best. 
I want to do much more than share 
The hopes and plans of friends who care; 
I'll try all that a friend can do 
To make their wishes come true. 
Let me use my heart to see, 
To realise what friends can be, 
And make no judgements from afar, 
But love my friends the way they are.
