~~ Friends are Forever ~~
A Hidden Place
Each of us has a hidden place --Somewhere deep within ourselves;
a place where we go to get away,
To think things through, to be alone, to be ourselves.
This unique place, where we confront our deepest feelings,
Becomes a storehouse of all our hopes,
all our needs, all our dreams,
and even our unspoken fears.
It encompasses the essence of who we are and what we want to be.
But now and then, whether by chance or design
or by destiny,
Someone discovers a way into that place we thought was ours alone.
We allow that person to see, to feel and to share all the reason,
all the uncertainty and all the emotion we've stored up there.
That person adds new perspective to our hidden realm and to our life
In such a way that we see and we feel their very presence in our life.
And that person is not even present many times in the flesh;
but, is always available in the spirit.
Then quietly settles down in his own corner of our special place,
Deep inside out heart, truly a hidden precious treasure,
being as beautiful, as elegant, and as cherishing --
As a freshly dew-kissed, breath-taking, prize-winning ROSE.
Where a bit of himself will stay forever,
into eternity.
Always there.
Always making a difference.
Always watching over us.
And I call that person a TRUE LOVING FRIEND.....
