"If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
And share with you it´s beauty
On the days you're feeling blue
If I could I´d build a mountain
For you to call your 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 that's always there"

~Friendship~
In a friendship
We're free to expose
Parts of ourselves
Nobody knows

But the thing that sustains it
And sets it apart
Is not something spoken
It's a bond of the heart

True friends are rare
In a lifetime two or three
I'm so glad it happened
Between you and me

Thank you,Pamela, for this loveley poem

"People like you
are few and far between.
You are the special kind of person
the world needs more of...

People like you
make everything so much nicer;
you have the marvelous ability
to turn happiness into joy
and wonderful thoughts
into precious memories...

People like you are thanked
for so many reasons
and appreciated beyond words,
because people like you
mean the world to...
people like me."

Thank you, my dear friend Ann-Lis

~ A friend is someone who comes in,
- when everyone has left ~

"Once in a while a friend is found 
who’s a friend right from the start. 
Once in a while a friendship's made 
that really warms the heart. 
Once in a while a friendship’s found 
to have a lifetime through. 
It really does happen, 
just once in a while .. 
It happened to me and you."

~Friends~
Our friends are like angels,
Who brighten our days.
In all kinds of wonderful,
Magical ways. 

Their thoughtfulness comes,
As a gift from above.
And we feel we're surrounded,
By warm, caring love.

Like upside-down rainbows,
Their smiles bring the sun.
And they fill ho-hum moments,
With laughter and fun. 

Friends are like angels,
Without any wings.
Blessing our lives,
With the most precious things!
