Old Friends.

Make new trends, but keep the old;
Those are silver, those are gold;
New made friendship, like new wine,
Age will mellow and refino.
Friendships that have stood the test
Time and change-are surely best.
Brow may wrinkle, hair grow gray,
Friendship never knows decay.
For mid old friends, tried and true,
Once more we our youth renew.
But old friends, alas! may die,
New friends their place must supply.
Cherish friendship in your breast;
New is good, bnt the old is best.
Make new friends, but keep the old;
Those are silver, these are gold.
