Friends Are Our Rainbows

I think of you often, with your distant smile, forever my friend, with your beautiful style. Your message of love, comes from a call, be strong my friend, keep your spirit tall. So gentle you speak, lifting your head to the sky, giving all the glory, to Jesus on high. Friends can comfort, although separated by miles, knowing what to say, God's gift to His child. Always ready, you listen, and care, no matter the time, you are always there. Right by my side, your presence is near, with your gentleness, I cherish so dear. Friends are our rainbows on a cloudy day... This poem was written for my sister-in-law and beautiful friend, Marie Prance.

Christy, I thought of my special friends from school when I read this. One drove 400 miles in a blizzard to attend my father's funeral last month. We never fail to say I love you because we understand the uncertainty of life. Thanks for inspiring great memories! Carolyn
