I'd like to tell a story
Of a flower that I found.
It can't be seen with human eyes
and it grows not in the ground.

Its stem is strength and kindness
And honesty its leaves.
Its brightly colored petals
are the faith in its beliefs.

Its scent hints of forgiveness
and peacefulness and love.
Its beauty brings more happiness
Than my heart could once dream of.

At first I fed this flower
half-truths, deceit and lies.
And any other flower
would certainly have died.

But this flower's roots run deeply
so they can't be torn apart.
And I'll be forever thankful
You're the flower in my heart.

hugs

Hugs come in every shape and size,

And mean so many things.

Like the hug that says, "I'm happy,

For the joy your friendship brings."

 

There are hugs for saying,

"I'm proud of all the things you do!"

Hugs that say, "There's no one else

In all the world like you!"

 

There are gentle hugs and tender ones,

For feelings that are sad.

Hugs that say, "I'm sorry,"

When someone's feeling bad.

 

There are hugs for all occasions,

And reasons big and small.

Tiny hugs and big bear hugs,

Short to extra tall!

 

But the nicest hug is one that says,

"I'm always thinking of you!"

The special kind this brings your way,

The hug that says, "I love you!"

 

Hugs are warm,

 Hugs are nice.

Hugs are the ways,

 To break the ice.

 

If you send me a hug,

 You won't regret.

I'll hug you back,

 So you can't forget!

 

A hug is just a way to say,

 I love you in a special way.

To tell that someone special,

I care about you in every way.

 

When you shed a tender tear,

A hug is sure to be near.

When you're trembling in fear,

A hug will come from someone dear.

 

Wrap your arms around someone near,

In your hug, is the circle of life.

A new beginning to an endless day,

A ray of hope to light your way!

 

Take a hug and pass it on,

Don't save them up, it can't be done.

Share them with family and friends,

Share them whenever you can.

 

A hug will make you "aahh!"

A hug will make you "oohh!"

A hug will make you smile,

A hug will make you feel great.

 

A hug lightens up your day,

A hug throws away your loads.

A hug strengthens your ties,

A hug makes you feel important.

 

Stop! Take a break!

A hug is harmless.

It only takes a little of our time.

Why not share a hug?

We all need a hug, at sometime!

"Into Each Life"

Into each life a little rain will fall

But if you have a friend

You can bear it all.

For a friend is an umbrella

To hold above your head,

And help you to think about

The sunny days instead.

Into each life a little sun will shine

But if you have a friend

It will always be fine.


For if you can share the sunny times

With a friend that will be grand,

As you talk and walk together

Securely hand in hand.


Into each life a little wind will blow

But if you have a friend

To whom you can go.


Your friend can help to guide you,

Can help you make the choice,

By offering their view

And adding a new voice.


Into each life like leaves things will fall

But if you have a friend

You know that you can call.


They'll always steer you clearly

When their counsel's sought.

For a friend is like a safety net

In which you'll be caught.


Into each life a friend will come to you

For if you have a friend

You'll know what to do.


When a problem shows itself

For a friend is there to share.

To offer an opinion

And to show that someone cares.


Into my life my friend came as you

For I know I have a friend

To share experiences old and new.


In the rain, sun, wind or fall

Who is loving, loyal and most true.

That sees my best qualities

And knows I am their friend too.

You Are My Friend

You are my friend
You listen with your heart
You forgive without bearing a grudge
You give of yourself...
Wholely...
Completely...

  

My heart stays warm with the love
you choose to share
My life is full from the joys we share
the laughter, the smiles


 

You listen to my problems
yet you choose to judge not
You listen with your heart
and always hold out your hand...
That hand that says
Come to me... I'll share your pain
I'll listen to your hurts
I'm here...

 

Always remember... that as much as you
are there for me,
I am your friend too...
and always will be...

Meanings 
 

Standing for what you believe in,
regardless of the odds against you,
and the pressure that tears at your resistance
...means courage
 
Keeping a smile on your face
when inside you feel like dying,
for the sake of supporting others
...means strength

Stopping at nothing
and doing what, in your heart,
you know is right
...means determination

Doing more than is expected
to make another's life a little more bearable
without uttering a single complaint
...means compassion

Helping a friend in need
no matter the time or effort,
to the best of your ability
...means loyalty

Giving more than you have
and expecting nothing,
but nothing in return
...means selflessness

Holding your head high
and being the best you know you can be
when life seems to fall apart at your feet,
facing each difficulty with the confidence
that time will bring you better tomorrows --
and never giving up
...means confidence
