FRIENDS SEVEN
TRUE FRIENDS by: Dream Weaver... You find them around When you are in need They will give of themselves Regardless of deed They're around when your happy And when you are sad Your mood makes no difference They make you feel glad You seldom know, who they may be Unless you're having trouble But when you need them, you will see True ones come on the double They come to lend a helping hand Whether skys be gloomy or sunny Then there are times, when you are down They'll say things that are funny The true ones last a long, long time And always seem to be there Still there are those that come but once These "False Ones" really don't care You'll find through life, that there are many "Fair Weather", "False", and "True". But never forget, if you would have any You must first be a "True Friend" too. *warm hugs* PlanetMars
Faceless Friend
Your face, your smile,
I've never seen
I don't know the color
of your skin
Your voice and laughter
I've never heard
I don't know if it
is soft or loud
Your hugs I've never felt
I don't know the strength
of your arms
Your hand I've never touched
I don't know if it is
calloused and worn
But to me you're my friend
Dearer and sweeter than
many I've found
Questions come to me,
"How can that be?"
"You don't know a face,
a touch, or a sound."
But is it the physical
nature of a person
That causes me to call
you, "my friend"
Or the feel of a touch or
the strength of a hug
I don't need those for
you to be my friend
You've shared with me
words of strength
When times I've felt
weak and worn
You've brought to me
a smile, a laugh
Uplifting me and bringing
me joy
You've bent your "ear" to
me and listened
Then gently guided and
directed with your words
You've hugged me tight,
wiped my tears
when generously gave
to me above and beyond.
You are more to me than
words on a screen
Because behind those words
is a person who cares
A person with feelings,
a tear, and a laugh
Who holds my mind
safe and secure
For even though I don't
know your face, your touch
I feel and see you in my mind
You've been all that
I've needed you to be
Now and forever...
within my heart...always...
My Faceless Friend

SPECIAL PEOPLE The special people in this world are the most precious and the most appreciated people of all. No matter what happens, they always seem to understand. They go a million miles out of their way. They hold your hand. They bring you smiles, when a smile is exactly what you need. They listen and they hear what is said in the spaces between the words. They care, and they let you know you're in their prayers. Special people always know the perfect thing to do. They can make your whole day just by saying something that no one else could have said. Sometimes you feel like they share with you a secret language that others can't tune into. Special people can guide you, inspire you, comfort you, and light up your life with laughter. Special people understand your moods and nurture your needs, and they lovingly know just what you're after. When your feelings come from deep inside and the need to be spoken to someone; you don't have to hide from, you share them... with special people. When good news comes, special people are the first ones you turn to, and when feelings overflow and tears need to fall, special people help you through it all. Special people bring sunlight into your life. They warm your world with their presence, whether they are far away or close by your side. Special people are gifts that bring happiness, and treasures that money can't buy.
