| Friendships Road
I've a warm and friendly feeling
As I think of you today;
And wish that we could visit
But you're many miles away.
Separated by such distance,
Yet your letters bring you near:
Through the miles we share a friendship,
That's to me become most dear.
Friends through correspondence only;
Still your face I need not see,
For your soul shines through the pages,
Every time you write to me.
You've a special way of writing;
Warming as the sunshine rays,
Bringing joy and inspiration,
Letter brightening up my days.
You've enriched my life, my dear one,
And I'm glad God willed we meet,
"Friendships Road" is that much nicer,
Traveling it with one so sweet.

FRIENDSHIP SAYINGS:
"A friend is better than a kin as he shares nothing but your pain and pleasure."

like a mother who caress you,
like a sister who teases you,
like a brother who fights you,
in short combine all worldly relations
you will have a friend and
that's what makes a friend above all relations "
