The rose is so delicate
And so beautiful too
An array of color
Each petal a different hue



It reminds me of friend's in my life
Who are so rare and so true
Who've so sweetly entered my heart
And brought along their own song too



Each of you give to me
A beauty so very rare
Which is tended with love
Gentleness and much care



The wisdom of words you speak
The advice you extend
Is very much appreciated
As coming from the heart of a friend



There is healing and health
In the words that you speak
Laughter and joy you bring
Each of you is so unique

I've seen your inner beauty
So sweet and so true
Compared as a symbol of this rose
Each petal a different hue

Proverbs 27: 9

Ointment and perfume rejoice the heart:
so doth the sweetness of a man's
friend by hearty counsel.



Written for, and dedicated to my
friends, who are so dear to my heart.
Too many to name, but each of you
know who you are.
Thank You for your friendship
your love, and your daily support!
