For all the times you listened
while I rambled on and on...
For the comfort that you gave me
when my days were cold and long... For the sunshine of your
smile
with its brilliance warm and true...
For the wisdom of your words
when I didn't have a clue... For standing tall beside me,
proud to be my friend...
For assembling my pieces
when I needed help to mend... For sharing in my laughter
when the good times rolled around...
For the solace of your silence
when I fell and hit the ground... For all these things and so
much more
these words I give to you...
Of all the friends in all the world
the truest one is you. © 2000
