Heart of Gold
My friend Terry dresses with style and class still to this day
You can spot her beauty, charm and pleasant aura a mile a way
On holidays she’ll enjoy an expensive bottle of Champagne
But generally it’s good wine especially when in Spain
Fancy restaurants is naturally where she prefers to dine
A healthy gluten-free dish and only the best red wine
Traveling to foreign countries she prefers more than to teach
Learning of other cultures, of course sunbathing on the beach
Her home is so classy it looks as if it came out of a Magazine
To really appreciate its ambiance it needs to be seen
You know the first time you meet her she has a heart of gold
Her values, ethics and morals can’t be bought or sold
She stands by her friends and family through all trials of life
She knows how to be a protective mother and loving wife
A remarkably good listener, eloquent speaker and gifted teacher
An accepting and sympathetic character is naturally within her
She is colorful yet centered, brilliant, witty and together
Doesn’t matter the day, the time, year or the weather
Sensitive, consistently well behaved and honest to the core
It is her faith in humanity and her belief in others, I most adore
A heart of gold, a gorgeous body and soul
Naturally, to be more like her is my goal
