Friendship

If I could show you a rainbow

I would see you within.

I find your strength in each sunrise

And each night as the sky grows dim.

I feel your beauty

As a rose I gaze upon

Fragrant with dew,

To these wonders you belong.

You have a certain quality

That makes me feel I am worthwhile

You always bring with you the sunshine

And manage to make me smile.

How can I ever repay

All the kindness you've shown me?

I owe you a debt more then money

But you give yourself so readily and free.

I know right now you feel

That your heart is breaking in two

And tomorrow seems so bleak,

How will you ever get through?

My wonderful, sweet friend

You have to me been so very strong

I want you to know

I am here if you need somebody to lean on.


Author's Notes/Comments: 

this is for my very best friend Roz, I hope she knows what a tower of strength she has been to me for the past few months and I hope she knows I will be there for her as much as I can.

Tanya, that is a beautiful poem. I can relate to that, as I have a friend who is much of what you describe. I hope she realizes how much she is loved by you.

Well between the two of you - you'll always have someone and that is something very few have. As one the future can be shared - True friends are hard to find. Friendship holds no boundries. Love Misty :-) ??? Who is the rock - maybe you are both half of the one rock. Maybe that is why you support each other so well??
