A Poem for a Special Friend

At first wet met at Homemakers Fair
And even then, I knew you were rare
Warm and soft-spoken and very shy
It took some time to figure out why

Sharing an office and chatting all day
We got to know each other that way
I got to learn your kind heart and soul
We grew close and firm friends formed

You lift me up when I am down
I hug you tight when you frown
You have been there for me when I need you
I hope I can do the same for you one day too.

You make me laugh until I nearly wee
You make me want to be a better me
A friend like you is difficult to find
So I’ll hold on for a little while…
