  4. Thanks
    Poet: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow


    So walking here in twilight, O my friends!
    I hear your voices softened by the distance,
    And pause and turn to listen, as each sends
    His words of friendship, comfort, and assistance.

    Thanks for the sympathies that ye have shown!
    Thanks for each kindly word, each silent token,
    That teaches me, when seeming most alone,
    Friends are around us, though no word be spoken.

    by Catherine Pulsifer, © 2020


    Words just don't express
    My wish for your happiness
    A true friend you have been to me
    I can only hope I can be
    A friend that cares and supports you too
    And bring you happiness by what I do.

    We meet a lot of people along the way
    But you are the best, my friend, I must say.
    Thank you for being around
    Even when we're silly and act like clowns.
    And when the challenges of life do come
    You're always there, you're awesome!

    So this poem was written just for you
    A friend, that is so true
    Thank you for being there
    Even when I give you the glare.
    Thank you for your smile so sweet
    I am so glad that we did meet.

    So as you can see the words just can't express
    My thanks to you, as a friend you're the best.
    As life journeys on, more laughs we will share
    And adventures we will see when we dare
    And together the challenges we will face
    Together life we will embrace.



  9. And together the challenges we will face Together life we will embrace.

    I truly appreciate you!

  13. To A Friend
    Poet Grace Stricker Dawson


    You entered my life in a casual way,
    And saw at a glance what I needed;
    There were others who passed me or met me each day,
    But never a one of them heeded.
    Perhaps you were thinking of other folks more,
    Or chance simply seemed to decree it,
    I know there were many such chances before,
    But the others-well, they didn't see it.

    You said just the thing that I wished you would say,
    And you made me believe that you meant it;
    I held up my head in the old gallant way,
    And resolved you should never repent it.
    There are times when encouragement means such a lot,
    And a word is enough to convey it;
    There were others who could have, as easy as not,
    But, just the same, they didn't say it.

    There may have been someone who could have done more
    To help me along, though I doubt it;
    What I needed was cheering, and always before
    They had let me plod onward without it.
    You helped to refashion the dream of my heart,
    And made me turn eagerly to it;
    There were others who might have (I question that part)-
    But, after all, they didn't do it

  15. If I Could Catch A Rainbow
    Poet: Unknown


    If I could catch a rainbow, I would do it just for you.
    And share with you its beauty, on the days you're feeling blue.

    If I could build a mountain, you could call it your very own.
    A place to find serenity; a place to be alone.

    If I could take your troubles, I would toss them in the sea.
    But all these things I'm finding, are impossible for me.

    I cannot build a mountain, or catch a rainbow fair.
    But let me be what I know best... A friend who's always there.



  16. A Greeting
    Poet: Edgar A. Guest


    If every day of yours were fine
    And every sky of yours were blue.
    You couldn't know such joy of mine.
    The joy of being friend to you.

    You've brushed away the clouds of care
    And often dried the bitter tears.
    And left a debt I couldn't square
    If I should live a thousand years.

    I'm wishing you'll as happy be
    As I am all this journey through.
    Who have this joy to comfort me.
    The joy o' being friend to you.



  17. Every Joy To You
    Poet: J. S. Ogilvie


    Every joy that heaven can send;
    Wealth, and every kind of treasure;
    Health and love to thee, my friend,
    And happiness without measure.
