There are some tender times
When I need to unfold
How it is in my heart
To express all the feelings that I hold


So, I sit with my pen
And let the words softly flow
With tenderness
Hoping somehow you will know


I find you most often come to mind
In those little frequent moments
And I wish that I could speak
But, I think you will know just what is meant


You are one I don't need to tell all
For already you understand my heart
So much of what I ponder
You are there as a major part


So I send this as a little token
To thank you for a love so real
Friendship that reaches out to me
Knowing how I feel


A love that tells me
I am not alone
For you come from the heart of God
Where I can be at home


Thank you, is a word so often used
Yet, it is the only one that is true
To tell God and you, how very glad I am
He gave me a friend like you

Ecclesiastes 4: 9~10

Two are better than one; because they
they have a good reward for their labour.
