Poetry

This is dedicated to Gladys, my best friend of over 51 years.

A friend…

Someone who looks beyond herself
And loves straight from her heart
With a welcoming shoulder to cry upon
When you feel you are falling apart.

A friend is a priceless, precious gift
Meant for us to treasure,
Sent by God with loving care
Bringing joy that we can’t measure.

Someone who knows you better
Than you may know yourself
Who appreciates your talents
And won’t let them sit on a shelf.

A friend is a priceless, precious gift
Meant for us to treasure,
Sent by God with loving care
Bringing joy that we can’t measure.

Someone who listens intently
With your well-being in mind
Who responds with truth and caring
And the best advice you’ll find.

A friend is a priceless, precious gift
Meant for us to treasure,
Sent by God with loving care
Bringing joy that we can’t measure.

Someone who always puts you first
And genuinely cares
Who understands your special dreams
And encourages you to share.

A friend is a priceless, precious gift
Meant for us to treasure,
Sent by God with loving care
Bringing joy that we can’t measure.

Someone who is proud of you
And rejoices in your success,
A champion who stands by your side
And for you wants only the best.

A friend is a priceless, precious gift
Meant for us to treasure.
I was blessed with such a friend.
Now, she is with God forever.
