Friends First And Foremost

Everyday, everywhere, every breath we take,
Building warmth to take us through tomorrow.
Lovers, companions, acquaintances, or spouses.
Friends first and foremost.
Touching, feeling, searching, doing the best we can,
Others we meet, others we know, for others' souls we reach.
Knowing, wanting, giving all we have to give.
Friends first and foremost.
Helpers, healers, calmers, easing someone else's strife.
Today, tomorrow or knowing it of yesterday.
Brother, sister, neighbor or stranger.
Friends first and foremost.
Allies, not enemies, acquaintances not strangers,
If help you need ask for it, if asked for help, give it.
For someone in need, give a hand, make it work.
Talk, listen, hold or just in silence of peace, always remember,
Friends first and foremost!!!
