With little social skill
Or you could be agreeable
And earn your friends’ goodwill
When you appease
You aim to please
By giving into somebody’s demands
When you allay
You make fear go away
By saying soothing words or simply holding someone’s hand
When you assuage
You reduce pain and rage
And help replace it with a soothing calm
If it’s peace that you desire
These are skills you should acquire
Think of how much they have helped your dad and mom!
