Friend On A Mission...
17 October, 2004
Author: Terrie*
they say it takes a life time to find the perfect friend
and only a day to make a true friend
through out my life
I have meet many friends
that God has placed in my path
some were around
for a short length of time
I spent time holding many hands
understand I never do..
those are the friends that left a hand print on my heart
there are also those that greeted me with a new day
and traveled upon their way
even with the short time we spent
I knew they were heaven sent
there were those that thought they were better than me
that didn't matter to me
my heart still exposed what I was all about
then there are those that stayed close by
those I knew I could rely
among the few that came to be
they never judged me
this I write for a dear guy whom became a friend of mine
together we shared a bit of time
this is my gift to you Don
a token of my friendship to say
thank you for being you...
thank you for crossing my path...
I learned from this adventurous experience
so much in life with our hearts shut we miss
what you shared was a host of a spirit
whom has found both love and friendship
in giving from the heart
you are the very heart
from where friendships get their start..

Don was a gentleman that crossed my path at the cemetery |
