I felt a deep connection
Within the shortest time
As we talked about our lives
And our great love of rhyme

I opened up my heart
And I let you come inside
With my feelings all laid out
I had nothing left to hide

Some people come into our lives
They're like a breath of fresh air
They bring words of inspiration
Which show how much they care

'tho miles may separate us
Words keep us close at heart
You have really made a difference
With the words that you impart

We share a special bond
Through our love of poetry
You've opened up my eyes
And enabled me to see

"For memory has painted
this perfect day
with colors that never fade,
and we find at the end of a perfect day
the soul of a friend we've made"
