~ Rose Of Friendship ~

Floating on the winds of time
There wafted fragrance sweet
And when I caught it in my hand
I touched it to my cheek

And there it tingled in my sleep
In all my mind could weave
A friendship hovered as I lay
Within my tender dreams

We frolicked over fields of green
And giggled on our way
Holding hands we leapt the stream
With nothing left to say

Then, so very softly I awoke
And my heart still held to keep
A yellow rose of dewdrops
Heaven's rose of our friendship

The petals of a rose glistening with dew
A heartwarming gift God gave me
from the heart of you
