"Because of You" *to someone special* My words have come back As though magic was breathed into me The laughter and joy I've shared with you Has helped me to be free Through the black of night you showed me who you were Though you tried not to show the real you But the amazing person you are Came shining clearly through You make me laugh and make me smile Help me to forget my troubles for a little while But you also listen, and there to lend a hand Caring and compassionate, you truly understand A friendship of the souls is what we share We both know this to be true You have a kindness that is rare I feel much better now, because of you... Kris: Thank you for your wonderful friendship. It means more to me than I can ever say. For those of you who don't know (snowpants) you should...she is a wonderful friend, and remarkable person. |

Although I don't really know snowpants, I am sure she is really deserving of this beautiful poem and your friendship Amy A beautiful tribute Maree "If my words could blanket the skies and fill every corner and crevice of this earth, still this won't be enough" "Maree Russo" |

To offer a show of friendship in a poem is a wonderful display of feelings, Amy. You are both very lucky..... |

Oh, sure. Make me cry, why don't 'cha? No, really, Aim. This is beautiful, and I thank you SOOO much. I couldn't ask for a better gift, my friend! You are too sweet!! *sniff* -e ô¿ô 'cause I am hanging on every word you say, and, even if you don't want to speak tonight, that's alright, alright with me... |
