It was a cold morning
When I woke up today
It felt quite chilly
On this September day

How little did I know
What was to occur
Would warm my heart
At this days beginning

I was talking to her
A dear dear friend indeed
When all of a sudden
She gave me a surprise

Words could not encompass
The feelings I felt then
As I got this gift
Of Joy and Bliss

She gave me a gift
The Gift of Love
And this cold morning
Was warmed up immediately

With this gift I soared
With this gift I melted
With this gift I smiled
With this gift I lived

Happier than I had been
In many a long moon
Do not doubt me
For it is true

While I may still be
Unable to truly express
How wonderful it felt
On this cold morning

To feel as loved
As I did that moment
I can but try here
And share these words

Thank you thank you
Thank you my friend
Your gift I shall cherish
Forever in my heart
