If Kind Words Truly Soothe the Soul... - Aaron McAndrew

If kind words truly soothe the soul,


Then I shall venture to encourage thee.

Yet I know not the troubles you see,

I hope you’ll welcome my efforts on the whole.

Although I’ve known you briefly, I have few facets to extol,

And our natures do not come together oh so perfectly,

I’ve mused within my mind (and my heart and soul agree)

That being a welcome friend is truly a fate-given role.



I hope we can grow closer still

And find in thee a fitting ally,

Because from life’s warm sun or death’s cold chill

A true friend can often escape the eye.

So either by chance, or by God’s sovereign will,

I chance we shall be friends…

At least until the school year ends.
