Our friendship is special 
Our friendship is dear 
Your are near to my beating heart 
Though kilometres separate us 
Spirits unite us 
Together forever 
Friends we will always stay 
We've been through heaps 
Helped each other lots 
Tears we have wept, 
Laughter we share 
Through joys and sorrows we know 
We'll always be there 
For one another 
Through good times and bad 
Happy moments and sad 
Burdens are lighter, loads easier to cope 
When it's broken into two, or three 
Shared between you, me and God 
A three-fold cord you cannot break - 
No man, woman or child 
Could ruin the God-inspired gift 
of friendship 
It's what we have 
Reigning in love!

"This is another of Elizabeth's poems she wrote for me in the difficult year of 1996.  It speaks of our friendship and the bond that we share.  Yes, we have been there for each other in good and bad times, and this was one of the bad times she was there for me, even across 1000 kilometres."
