This poem sums up what I wish I had the words to say to a special lady friend I recently gotten to know. and I know after reading it she will know what a special person she is to me.

I wanted to find a poem that truly said what I felt in my heart for my good friend that has always been there for me in support, inspiration and mentor. I am still in tears because it not only expressed exactly what I wanted to say, but I was truly and affectionately touched. Absolutely beautiful and inspirational poem. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. I look forward to being touched by more of your wonderful poems. May God Bless You and take good care.

My life has always been filled with many trouble and I have always been able to pick myself back up and make the best of the current situation, but the past 12 months have been the worst it has ever been and each time it gets harder and harder to get back up.But luckily I have had a very special friend to help get through it. I am trying to buy a car and move into my own place so funds are really tigh, but wanted to show him how much he means and how much what he has done for ! me is appreciated. I bought him a pair of concert tickets and along with some flowers where going to have them delivered to his house, but could not find the right words to express exactly what I wanted.so I write this today to say thank you.thank you for giving the ability to give him the perfect gift. =o)
