This flame burns more brightly,
but hurt it will not.
For this flame is a part,
of the fire of friendship.

This flame is more brilliant,
for you helped it grow,
it takes two,
to make a friendship fire glow.

The fire of friendship,
is a thing most true,
that is why,
I hand it to you.

A friend more true,
I have not known,
I'm thankful to you,
for this flame which has grown.

The fire of friendship,
is a most wonderful thing,
so pass it on and make,
a small friendship ring.

A FRIEND IS ONE
TO WHOM ONE MAY POUR OUT ALL
THE CONTENTS OF ONE'S HEART
CHAFF AND GRAIN, TOGETHER,
KNOWING THAT THE GENTLEST OF HANDS
WILL TAKE AND SIFT IT,
KEEP WHAT'S WORTH KEEPING,
AND BLOW THE REST AWAY!!!

YES!
