Friendship soup

Like chicken soup, only much more nutritious,

more surprising and more refreshing for your soul.

All you need is a can of love and a can of friendliness

opened with  smiles.

Poured into a bowl of sincere interactions

and some similar interests

Mixed with:

One cup of compliments,

Three cups of talking,

Five cups of time together, house visits,

Two teaspoons of helpfulness,

Another three teaspoons of dependability,

At least two cups of appreciated come-throughts,

wide and broad shoulder cry-ons,

A few gallon of warm hugs,

Tons and tons of encouragement,

Wash away the envy,

And don't forget a pinch of quietness.

Above are the ingredients for the friendship soup

I'm happy to enjoy this wonderful bowl of friendship soup

which is prepared and cooked by my friend, you.
