No matter how misconstrued, <br />one may be taken, <br />a gentle heart, <br />will never change, <br />and always shine through, <br /> <br />A friend, <br />that don't understand, <br />take their voices, pro or con, <br />with a pebble of rock salt, <br />They be what they have to be! <br /> <br />A friend nothing more, <br />and for sure never less, <br />that unknowingly to you, <br />is the measurement of their rule, <br />in your hand you carry, <br /> <br />For if one measures something else, <br />they're using the wrong scale, <br />while one may be mistaken, <br />their friendship ruled together, <br />will never be forsaken, <br /> <br />With that in mind, <br />like Jesus, the great carpenter, <br />he who builds a colossal house, <br />together our planks of companionship, <br />will build a friendship that can never be torn down!<br /><br />Richard McClellan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/friendship-378/
