A Friday Gift From Me to You
by Mark Anthony Kernan
Here’s a little friendship gift, I wish to offer you,
It’s words, so carefully chosen, to prove my feelings true.
Of all the beings, in this world, - six billion I believe, or so,
You are the one selected to reap what these words sow.
For every day that I’ve known you,
Richer I’ve become.
In thoughts, in deeds, and in visions of things yet to come.
Day and night you’re on my mind,
And in my heart as well.
You and I – friends forever - time will surely tell.
The pain you feel, so deep within, is that, I hope to lift,
When today, you, my very special friend, receive this little gift.
For all your pain and suffering, God will take you in,
If you just remember, "You’re on cloud nine and headed for ten".
