To My Best Friend

The greatest treasure on this earth, A joy that knows no end, Is the timeless, never failing love Of a true and faithful friend. And thus you are to me, my friend, And thus you'll always be. Your sincere love and friendship Means the world, and more, to me. In times of need you were right there To lend a helping hand. When my soul is heavy-laden, You seem to always understand. With abundant wealth of friendship, I know I'm heaven-blest, But of all the friends I've ever known To me, you've been the very best.

Hi Bill, I believe that I had commented on each and every one of your poems, but I got swept away; returning I found that all comments were gone. I wept when you'd stopped writing. You are one of the true pioneers of the Soup and a most wonderful man. Love to you, Mikki
