Like a flower, growing in its beauty
As it opens up itself to you,
Every secret that it gives away
Shows itself a dream that has come true—

Like a rope to hold you firm and steady
When about to fall off of the heights,
It will catch you in your weaknesses,
Holding you when love seems out of sight—

Like the rising sun, spreading golden brilliance,
Piercing past the heart’s obscurest bends;
Giving everything to help another—
This is what it means to be a friend!

Beautiful piece!! Enjoyed. Chris
