My sweet friend tends a garden
Grown here within my heart
And my soul is ever nurtured
By the loving she imparts

Each day I am refreshed
From that life lived in God's word
Reflected by the kindness
And soft beauty within her

Her prayers are said to strengthen
And shelter me from cold
And all of her encouragement
Helps my spirit to unfold

I joy so, in the sunshine
Of her kind and loving care
And wear a secret smile
From the sweetness that she shares

Now my small gift I would return
From the garden of my heart
Is this rose to say, thank you
For the love that she imparts

Soft whispers for special you from

~Thankfulness depends
on what is in my heart,
Not what lies
within my hand.~
