"When one door of happiness closes,
another opens;
but often we look so long at the
closed door that we
do not see the one
which has been opened for us."

~Helen Keller ~

YOU ARE NOT ALONE
I cannot ease your aching heart,
Nor take your pain away;
But let me stay and take your hand
And walk with you today.

I'll listen when you need to talk,
I'll wipe away your tears;
I'll share your worries when they come,
I'll help you face your fears.

I'm here and I will stand by you,
on each hill you have to climb;
So take my hand, let's face the world ...
And live just one day at a time.

You're not alone, for I'm still here,
I'll go that extra mile;
And when your grief is easier,
I'll help you learn to smile!

BEST OF FRIENDS
The best of friends,
Can change a frown,
Into a smile,
when you feel down.
The best of friends,
Will understand,
Your little trials,
And lend a hand.

The best of friends,
Will always share,
Your secret dreams,
Because they care.

The best of friends,
Worth more than gold,
Give all the love,
A heart can hold

~Jill Wolf ~

FRIENDSHIP
Friendship is a priceless gift
that cannot be bought or sold.
But its value is far greater,
than a mountain made of gold.
For gold is cold and lifeless
it can neither see nor hear,
and in the time of trouble
it is powerless to cheer,
it has no ears to listen nor
heart to understand,
It cannot bring you comfort or
reach out a helping hand.

So when you ask God for a gift
Be thankful if he sends not diamonds,
pearls or riches but the love of real
TRUE FRIENDS.

~Helen Steiner Rice ~

FRIENDSHIP FOR EVER AND EVER
I want you to know:
I am really happy to have the kind of friendship I have with you.
I love it because it's true and real and trusting.
Because it does my heart and soul good to know that I'm going to
be there for you ... and you for me ...when there areneeds that
need to be tended to, when there are feelings that need to be felt,
and when there are smiles that simply need to be shared in the
company of someone who really cares.
I don't know if I could ever completely describe to you how
important our friendship is to me.
But it is so much a part of all that is good in my world.
Sometimes you feel like a gift that was given to my days to make
sure that they would always have some happiness in them.
More than once, I have felt that what I lack in life, I make up
for by having a friendship that I wouldn't trade for anything.
Anytime. Anywhere.
I have dreams in my life that may never come true,
travels I may never take, goals I may not be able to reach,
and hopes that might always be just beyond my horizons.
But I want you to know that whether my wishes
come true or whether they disappear altogether,
I will always feel like one of the luckiest people in the world.
Because I have a friend - in you.
And because we're going to be friends - forever.

FRIENDSHIPS FLOWER
Life is like a garden
And friendship like a flower,
That blooms and grows in beauty
With the sunshine and the shower.
And lovely are the blossoms
That are tended with great care,
By those who work unselfishly
To make the place more fair.

And, like the garden blossoms,
Friendship's flower grows more sweet
When watched and tended carefully
By those we know and meet.

And, if the seed of friendship
Is planted deep and true
And watched with understanding,
Friendship's flower will bloom for you.

~Helen Steiner Rice ~

TRUE MEANING OF FRIEND
So often you're there when I am lonely,
You always sound glad when I call,
And it seems every time that I need you,
You say it's no trouble at all.
So, I hope that if you ever need a favour,
I'm someone on whom you'll depend,
And I hope I can be
all that you've been to me-
For that's the true meaning of "friend"

~Emily Matthews ~

WALK BESIDE ME
Don't walk in front of me,
I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me,
I may not lead.
Just walk beside me and be my friend.
A real friend is someone who walks in
when the rest of the world walks out.

Forgiveness is the glue,
that repairs broken relationships.

Nature has given to men one tongue,
but two ears, that we may hear
from others twice as much
as we speak.

True friends are like diamonds,
precious and rare.

A friend is someone
who knows the song in your heart,
and can sing it back to you
when you have forgotten the words.

A friend is one who believes in you
when you have ceased to believe
in yourself.

It takes a long time
to grow an old friend.

FRIENDSHIP ROAD
I have a warm and friendly feeling
As I think of you today;
And I wish that we could visit,
But you're many miles away.

Separated by such distance,
Yet our emails bring us near;
Through the miles we share a friendship
That's become to me most dear.

Friends through correspondence;
Still, your face I need not see
For your soul shines through the words
Everytime you write to me.

You have a special way of writing,
Warming as the sunshine rays,
Bringing joy and inspiration,
Brightening up my days.

You have enriched my life, my dear one,
And I'm glad God willed we meet,
"Friendship's Road" is that much nicer
Traveling it with one so sweet.

IF ONLY
If only these few words I wrote for you,
Arrived through cyber space to change into,
A balsam for the agony you're in,
And ease a little of the fear within.
If smiles could find a way through time and space,
They'd hold you in a comforting embrace,
Until a smile appears upon your face,
And strength returns to face another day.
If thoughts could reach the universe afar,
I'd place a soothing cure on every star,
To heal the aching soul during a dream,
While angels chase away your silent scream.
If only these few words I wrote today,
Could do just that for you this cloudy day...

~ Munda Schram ~

FRIENDSHIP ACROSS THE MILES
To friendship across the miles.
Even though we're miles apart we are still in someones heart.
To be apart of someones life even if through this machine.
Is the greatest pleasure anyone can ask for.

We'll always be the best of friends no matter what.
Because you hold a special place in my heart.
Forever and ever we'll remain friends.
And true friends at that.

Until the day that maybe we can meet.
And see the true friend that we have met here on line.
Our dreams will always be here in our hearts,
and that is such a warm and blessed thing to have.
So we will always be friends across the miles.

I cherish our friendship and always will.
No miles can separate the friendship that we have together.
So you take care and have a nice day, and a great night also.
We'll talk later my friend across the miles.

~Debbie Clements ~

MY ANGEL, MY FRIEND
I never thought that I would find
A friend so great and a friend so kind!
I look up to you in every way,
And I learn something from you every day.

Without you I don't know where I'd be
But you're still here and an angel to me!
You deserve so much more than I can give
And without you I don't know how I'd live.

You've given me everything and more,
You're the finest example of what a friend's for!
And I want you to know that I truly do care
Even when I say things that aren't fair.

For you until the end I will fight,
Because when you're around everything is right;
You're an angel sent from God up above
And I'm thankful for your understanding love!

Thanks for being the friend you are
You're my favorite angel by far.
And if it ever seems like I'm not there
Remember I love you and I'll always care!

~ Author Unknown ~

I have a friend that's always there,
Ready to lend a hand.
One who cares about my heartaches,
And seems to understand.

A good friend that I can count on,
When days are so weary.
Someone to share my deepest thoughts,
When nights are so dreary.

It seems I never find the words,
To show appreciation.
The sweet friendship that is offered,
Is an inspiration.
With these true words I send my love,
And thanks I do impart.
As YOU my friend will always have,
A place within my heart.

~ Southbreeze ~

MAY YOU ALWAYS HAVE AN ANGEL
May you always have an angel by your side

Someone there to catch you if you fall
Encouraging your dreams
Inspiring your happiness

Holding your hand and helping you through it all
In all of our days, our lives are always changing
Tears come along as well as smiles
Along the roads you travel,
may the miles be a thousand times more lovely than lonely,
May they give you the kind of gifts that never, ever end:
Someone wonderful to love
Send a dear friend in whom you can confide
May you have rainbows after every storm
May you have hopes to keep you warm
And may you always have an angel by your side.

BEFORE I WENT TO BED TONIGHT
Before I went to bed tonight
I just had to let you know,
that my love for you is strong
and will always continue to grow.

Before I went to bed tonight
I thought that you should hear
That every moment we spent together,
I hold so very dear.

Before I went to bed tonight
I had you on my mind.
I thought of things you've done for me,
Things from a heart so kind.

I hope this letter makes you happy,
If only for a while
But I'd gladly write a million
Just to see you smile!

I know this sounds crazy,
Just like I lost my head.
But I had to let you know,
Before I went to bed.

~ Author Unknown ~

Look to this day
for it's life
The very life of life.

For yesterday
it's already a dream
and tomorrow
us only a vision...

But today, well lived
makes every yesterday
a dream of happiness
and every tomorrow
a vision of hope.

YOUR SPECIAL ANGEL

I am your special angel,
On orders from above.
To see that as a child of God,
You receive some special love.

God sent me down to find you,
I knew exactly where to look.
For your name is written down,
In God's big address book.

He said I'd recognize you,
From your tiny turned-up nose.
You'd also have two shell-like ears,
Complete with two ear lobes.

He gave me then a choice,
Of your left ear or your right.
Said I could stay in either one,
So I'd be with you day and night.

So, if your ear begins to tickle,
From the flutter of my wings.
Remember I'm an angel,
And angels do those things.

Now, if you get to feeling sad,
Or maybe kind of scared.
Just tug upon your earlobe,
I promise to be there.

I'll come straight to your rescue,
Because that's my job to do.
God thinks you're very special,
That's why He sent me down to you!

~ Virginia (Ginny) Ellis~

ABILITY
Ability Is To Look At A Blank Page,
And Create A Poem.

And Come Out Stronger Because Of It.

Ability Is To Walk Into A Room Of Strangers,
And Come Out With Friends.

When You Are Wrong.

Ability Is To Get Back Up,
When You Fall Down.

When Everything Seems Lost.

Through all eternity to thee
A joyful song I'll raise,
For oh! Eternity is too short
To utter all thy praise.

MARCH DAY SERENADE
The frosty days are put to rest
As winter turns to spring
We cast an eye up to the sky
To what this month will bring.

A day when dark clouds gently brew
With not one leaf a stirring
When thunder peals as lightening cracks
A raging storm, enduring.

As shifting winds blow here and there
Without a rhyme or reason
When Ides of March come out to play
A turbulent sort of season

We've waited long for nature’s song
For freshness in the air
For rainy days and purple haze
For breezes sweet and fair

A time of kites and windy days
A time when dreams are made
A time when God blows forth a kiss
A March day serenade.

~ Marilyn Ferguson ~

MY SWEETHEART
So often when I am embracing you,
It seems that you exist in this world
only because of me and I exist because of you.

It's not easy to wander in this world
and not lose one's way,
but the greatest happiness of all
is in giving joy to one's beloved.

And if the king can have his throne,
and if the bird can have his Spring nest,
and God can have his heaven,
then I, my sweetheart, I can have you!

~ Jonathan Townsend ~

FRIENDS
A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift,
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place.

~Jean Kyler McManus ~

WHAT YOU ARE TO ME
I am a rose, you are my thorns,
clutching to me, protecting me.
I am the sun, you are my rays,
helping me to shine and to be all that I can.
I am a lake, you are my water,
filling me with ideas, dreams, and hopes for the future.
I am a tree, you are my leaves,
sharing who and what I am
and becoming an important part of my life.
I am a heart, you are my beat,
beating rhythmically to my happiness,
my fear, my sadness, my excitement.
I am me and you are with me,
to share all that I am,
to share life, love, and happiness.

Always.
