Picture by Josephine Wall

* * *

So many arms embrace you
At this very difficult time
Regardless of the distance
Between your heart and mine

An invisible bridge
I will build for you
As your strength and courage
Will help get you through

My words don't seem enough
How I wish I could be there
To embrace you with my friendship
And show you how much I care

But my words are all I have
And my friendship ever true
How I wish with all my heart
Things will turn around for you

* * * *

"Friendship is the finest rose
in the garden of life"

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Oh Sue, this is exactly how I feel about Lyra. She is such a dear friend. I wish the very best for her. And pray that she will have a miracle happen. This is just beautiful. Thank you for posting it.

Sue this is a beautiful message that you leave for our friend Lyra.  I know she remains in our thoughts and prayers always as she now goes through this struggle.  She is among many good friends here.
Lyra my friend, healing hugs and prayers to you.
Sue, thank you for this gift from your heart. Hugs.

I know that you can 'read' me
but can you  'hear'  "me"?

Sue, your words in this piece are more than enough and you speak from your heart and all of us.

Let's get this faery to sprinkle lots of her faery dust over Lyra. There is always hope for a miracle.  

I know there are many, many prayers going her way.

Hugs and Luvs, Marti
