For all the times you
listened while I rambled
on and on, For the comfort
that you gave me when my
days were cold and long,
For the sunshine of your
smile, with its brilliance
warm and true, For the
wisdom of your words
when I didn't have a clue,
For standing tall beside
me, proud to be my friend,
For assembling my pieces
when I needed help to mend,
For sharing in my joy
when the good times rolled
around, For the solace of
your silence when I fell
and hit the ground,
For everything
you give to me,
these words
I give to you...
Of all the friends
in all the world,
the truest one is you.
