Rose of
Friendship
The beauty
of the rose
Is truly beyond
compare
Except when it
comes to the beauty
Of the
friendship that we share.
Roses are
beautiful and delicate
With a fragrance
light and sweet.
Their petals are
soft as velvet
Like an angel's
kiss upon the cheek.
You shine with
perfection
Like a rose with
drops of dew
And the
beauty in your heart
Will forever shine through.
Thank you for
all you do
My endearing and
loving friend.
You have
always been there
And on you I
know I can depend.
I send this
rose as a gift
As I put my pen
to write.
To let you
know I think of you
Before I turn
out the light.
