Missing My Friend

You are sunshine giving me warmth on a pleasant day Shining through the sadness showing me how to play You are the rain tending to my garden with tears of love Washing away my heavy heart as you watch from above You are the beautiful flower swaying gently in the breeze Growing stronger every day urging me to do as I please You are the wind lifting away the sorrow freeing my soul As clouds float softly over the tree tops making me whole You are the butterfly stirring in the early morning light Dancing with the sunbeams then playfully taking flight You are the sky showing off prisms of color and hope Eagerly displaying your amazing beauty helping me cope You are the dear friend I long for as I realize a new day Knowing you surround my heart you will never go away If I had one wish granted today I know it would surely be To give as much to you as you always gave to me
