Her words echo through my mind
Bringing to life the visions she paints
On these hallowed pages
Where she pours out her heart

Her joy is our joy to celebrate
Her sorrow is now our sorrow to bear
We try to lift the burden for her
So that it does not become too great

We send her our most sacred prayers
Heartfelt thoughts and wishes
That perhaps our words of support
Will somehow touch her weary heart

May the Lord bless her
And hold her close to Him
Soothing her aching heart
During this her time of need

LoneWolf~
See, there's that special heart again.

As we lift friends in prayer -
we are joined together,
unified in our thoughts for another.

She is a special lady that we all know and love.
We are family ...
I know she can feel our strength.
Love n' hugs
