FRIENDS CARE Did you know how great it feels, to have so many people that really do Care? They Care enough to listen and then to share. They care if your Happy and Care if your Sad, they care if your Sick or if you are mad? That's what friendship is about, And true friends do Care without a doubt. They Care out of Love for a friend that is dear, They actually Care more than it sometimes appears. So how do we know who are true friends are? They are the ones who Care and shine like a star. Because true Friends Care and your a part of their heart. And true friends stay together till death do you part. Caring and sharing is what we all need, and a true friend will be there to see you succeed. So when you feel alone and need a friend, My heart is here and my ear I will lend. To me thats what friendship is all about, And you'll always know a true friend without a doubt. Judy©1998
Flowers and butterflies from my garden Remind me so of you, my friends. They sometimes move in agreement And sometimes to opposite ends ... Yet always they perform in a ... Breathtaking dance of light. As friends, you make a song out of the everyday. And you do more for me than any fate Could ever do -- to make me happy ... Watching you all , helps put my dreams to music. Flowers, butterflies and you, my friends Have made my world complete ... By the beauty you add where ever you go, And by the horizons that you keep. Happiness you've brought to me ... Sometimes without a touch or sign. You see, it's simply good enough to know you're friends of mine!! © by Darle

To cheer you up when you are sad To make you happy when you are mad To help ease the hurt of burdens to bare To lend a shoulder - To show we care. To be a listener when there's time of trouble To be understanding and subtle To be in times of need - always there And enjoying moments only friends can share I'm happy to say that you're all of these The kind of person that's ready to please One that's happy and true to the end And better yet - a dear, sweet friend. © CHRIS O.
FAR AWAY I think of you as often as I can; Of how we me t and of distant far away lands. We talk so much you and I, It seems that time just flies. Although you are so very far from me, We have a special bond that time nor distance can steal away. I enjoy the moments so true and dear. I only wish you were right here. And having a friend so far away makes me sad in a lot of ways. Oh my far away friend, you have missed my smiles and my tears, My joy and my fears, the laughter and the confusion. But I will say this having you as a far away friend Has brought me joy to no end. I thank you dearly, my far away friend, Thank you for being there. © Lori Pendergraft
THE MIRACLE There's a miracle called Friendship That dwells in the heart You don't know how it happens Or when it gets started But you know the special lift It always brings And you realize that Friendship Is God's most precious gift! Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us. Show your friends how much you care.... Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND. If it comes back to you, then you'll know you have a friend for life. ~~unknown~~
THANK YOU FOR BEING MY FRIEND Thank you for believing in me when I found it difficult to believe in myself... for saying what I've needed to hear sometimes, instead of what I've wanted to hear... for siding with me... and for giving me another side to consider. Thank you for opening yourself up to me... for trusting me with your thoughts and disappointments and dreams... for knowing you can depend on me and for asking my help when you've needed it. Thank you for putting so much thought and care and imagination into our friendship... for sharing so many nice times and making so many special memories with me. Thank you for always being honest with me being kind to me... being there for me. Thank you for being a friend to me in so many meaningful ways. -- by Larry S. Chengges
WINDOW Don't know how it happens, or when it will begin... You leave the window open, and someone comes in. You enter a world of fantasy, go places you've never been. Spending more and more time enjoying your new friends... You're glad that window was open, you're glad that they stepped in... Like the window you open your heart, letting them come in... They enter taking a part, making you laugh, giving a smile. Taking your reality into fantasy if only for a little while... I'm glad my window was open so happy you stepped in. But most of all... I make another friend! ~source unknown~
