A jubilant soul, a delightful mind
A friend in whom I pride,
A heart that knows a weary soul,
And hears me out alright.

A lad who makes me smile with glee,
A friend in him I find,
Gentle yet stubborn, a child at heart
He is sure one of a kind!

Each day I respect him more,
For the person he has grown to be
A friend in need couldn’t be explained any better,
I celebrate the person that is he!

Springs of talents spate within,
He's God's marvel so sublime—
Oh pardon me… I've sinned enough,
If lying is a crime!
