Notes About The Poem

Just What the Doctor Ordered


Your heart is kind, so amazing
A blessing, inside… my soul is praising

You’re a piece of the life, God gave
A life full of purpose, a chance so brave

Your soul is faithful, such sacrifice
A sweet smelling joy, heavenly spice

You’re a miracle of grace, God’s light
A murmur of love that feels so very right

Your story comes alive as dawn rises
A blessing of pure wonder always surprises

You’re a healing of the heaviest heart
A music poured out, a song that won’t depart

Your tenderness is like a breath of hope
A sweet ember of encouragement so I can cope

You’re a friend who is worthy of each honor
A promise that tells me all my fear is a goner

Your natural ability is to always inspire
A sincerity that reassures my wildest desire

You’re more than a blessing, I can’t describe
A blessing that is just what Jesus did prescribe

When I first met you, I didn’t realize
How your light could be brighter than sunrise

Now I know that you’re more than a friend
You’re assurance that my gratitude will never end!

Thank you, my friend – for all you’ve been
I’ve loved you since our friendship did first begin
