I searched through all my poetry books To see if I could find A special poem that I could use To say what's on my mind. But there was not a single one That truth can't be denied For no one in the world could know Just how I feel inside.
So, forgive me as I struggle To write what's real and true I'll do my best to capture All the things that make you you.
Your smile can melt the coldest heart A quality rare to find And when you speak, your voice is calm Your words are always kind
And when your heart is troubled With burdens hard to bear You don't complain, you carry on As if you hadn't a care.
My special friend, we've never met Not face to face it's true But no one's ever touched my life Or cared for me like you.
You've made my world a better place And me, a better gal And so I dedicate this page to you My Special Friend, my pal. God bless you - Lucille |
