Whereas some choose 

To pull me down

You chose to lift

Me Up! For this I

Appreciate you 

 

Whereas some choose 

To dishonour me,

You choose the opposite; 

To honour me! For this l

Appreciate you!

 

Whereas some choose 

To hate me, you choose 

To love me, no matter

What! For this, I appreciate 

You!

 

Whereas some choose 

To destroy my reputation 

Through gossip, lies etc; 

You choose to build me up 

With words of encouragement 

For this, I appreciate You

 

Whereas some refuse

To see the good in me, 

You choose to and;

Admire the good 

That is my gift! 

For this, I appreciate you. 

 

Whereas some choose

To deny me food,

You choose to feed 

And clothe Me. 

For this, I appreciate you

 

A Genuine and sincere friend, who can find?
