I offer unto you my heart
Full of love within,
I share with you the cup of life
To drink of where we've been.

I offer you untold moments of time
As much as it will take,
To be the best of friends
Each warming sip appreciate.

I offer you my affections
Overflowing love divine,
For what we share of heaven together
Will also bless this heart of mine.

I offer you all that I have
For whatever life unfolds,
We shall share our cup of friendship
For all the sweetness it will hold.

If it was by accident we met,
by choice we became fast friends...
Friendship is a strange thing....
we find ourselves telling each other
the deepest details of our lives
things we don't even share
with our families who raised us...
But what is a friend? A confidant?
A touch of heaven? A fellow emailer?
A shoulder to cry on?
 an ear to listen and pray?
 a heart to feel?...
A friend is all these things...and more.
No matter where we met,
I call you friend.
A word so small...yet so large in feeling...
a word filled with meaning.
