The Friendship Jar

This gift of love I gave my friend, A jar with messages to send. Adorned with ribbon curls and lace, To put a smile upon her face. I know she'll keep it to the end I thought out just what I should say, That she could read to make her day. On folded papers laid inside This gift of love. Wrote down things like "you're so funny" "With you here each day is sunny" "You're kind and wise,so very smart". Know that this gift comes from the heart, Something you can't buy with money This gift of love. for contest"Gifts Given,Gifts Received" sponsored by Cyndi MacMillan
