    Kindness has spoken 
in images that are of you, 
in thoughts that are of you, 
and special moments, 
like bottled messages across 
the sea, found by a 
distant traveler. 

    The spirit longs 
for the richness of life, 
to embrace all that can be, 
and the joys of knowing 
a dear friend. 

    Life is at its best, 
in the sharing of friendship, 
and the days that are filled with 
the fullness of life. 

    Richness abounds 
in the spirit of love, 
casting the spirit to freedom, 
to roam about the meadows 
and valleys of an afternoon sun. 

    Life is blessed, 
worth the toil and the suffering, 
when the light that is found, 
gives warmth and hope. 

    It is truly worth knowing, 
a friendship thus heaven sent, 
for one truly cherishes 
thoughts that are of you...
