-To You, With Grace-

A special friend with a place in my heart

Though distance divides us, we’re not far apart

For caring words said in all honesty

Bond us together in unending company

Our joy, our tears, may mingle with laughs

But our gifts of trust forever shall last

And how precious you are as a part of my life

The sun through the clouds; the comfort from strife

So I keep you close inside of my mind

Though in my arms I may never find

For you are but a dream, of love to hold

To cherish, to honor, as I grow old
