A gift was given from a heart so true From one so warm could only be you Just a small gift to help light my way A shining star, what more to say The gift revealed your heart and soul Lights my life and makes me whole Night after night, shines it's light Heart fills with dreams of what just might The gift itself brought forth hidden treasure Had so much meaning, brought much pleasure That star now rests close by my heart For in this life that star and I will not part These words they are my gift to you Friendship I've found in one so true You fill my life with warmth and love Surely you are an angel from above. < !signature--> Not all those who wander are lost. ~J.R.R.

 This is so touching and so beautiful (**tears**) although that does not even begin to describe the feelings that this gives me. Amazing my friend...truly amazing. This is a beautiful gift from your heart, one that nothing can compare to. A gift of friendship is worth more than a million stars ..and lasts far longer. Thank you so much for sharing this gift.< !signature-->The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams ~Eleanor Roosevelt~ ~Butterflies are meant to be free~ (a gift from my S.S.)

Eagle this is perfect, wonderful writing and sentiments here. you shine in this poem as well. your source of inspiration must indeed be an angel to inspire this in you  excellent work. take care, jm Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme, They are not measured by the commitment of time. Some emotions run too deep to be described by words, Forgiveness and understanding-remain the most beautiful words ever heard. ~Janet Marie~ "What the caterpillar calls the end ...

epoet....yes this one is striaght from the heart, as to who it's for I think I'll let you wonder some more. CocoBaci...I sigh with you! BDC....A gift given with love is always beautiful. this work only just begins to describe the amazing feelings and emotions stired by a gift from the heart. Janet....you have me blushing now. As for the insperation, well an angel to be sure, and an insperation each and every day. To one and all I thankyou for taking the time to read and comment. God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
