Picture by Josephine Wall

* * * *

I'm here if you should need me
For I will wipe away your tears
I can always be relied on
To listen to your fears

As your friend it is my duty
To always be there for you
I know your sheer determination
Will help to get you through

Long ago the bonds of friendship
Were very firmly tied
That's when I made a promise
To always be close to your side

Although we're far in distance
I hope my words might comfort you
There is much love and hope around
And together we'll help you through

* * *

I wrote this for Marti who has had
such a difficult time lately.I just
wanted her to know that she is in
my thoughts and the thoughts of others.

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

Sue, I am so grateful for your beautiful poem and the love it brings to my heart. I have shed buckets of tears, mostly from fear of the unknown. Your words brought tears also, but of joy and comfort.

I am strong and have a loving and supportive family and group of friends who will walk this journey with me.

So many here at Passions have been extraordinarily kind I thank each and everyone of you for your love and prayers.

I love you dear friend ... thank you, Marti

Sue,
Nice job. And yes she is. Courage Martie!

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
