Array ( [sid] => 114043 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I Salute You My Friend [time] => 2006-01-31 16:23:28 [hometext] => To a friend who has been through many difficulties, but still shines bright on her BD. [bodytext] => A spiritual mentor, you are to me
A glorious example for all of humanity
Always the servant willing to give
Just a natural disciple, who lives
Both for the Lord, plus the kindness to others you see
Your wit, humor and easy laugh are an inspiration to me
Along with the playful mischievousness you display
A joyful and forgiving heart, I would say
This tranfers to your loyalty and friendship ways
One can wonder if you are an angel in training today
Such a strong faith and spirituality assures
Through all your suffering and pain you endure
Yet would rather focus on others with her reserve
A very courageous, brave woman, what nerve
A living example of hope, she expels
This genuine lady is a caring soul who excels
And a true sister in Christ, to extol
Just ask her family who know
I'm so proud to end
With a humble proclamation.....

To call you, my friend! [comments] => 5 [counter] => 242 [topic] => 55 [informant] => Willofree [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 24 [ratings] => 8 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )

Loved this! Wil, what a beautiful sentiment. So heartfelt, warm
and loving. A stunning dedication, wonderfully penned.
She will be truly honoured by it, and by your friendship as well.
Of that I'm sure. Loved this line in particular ...

"One can wonder if you are an angel in training today"

How perfectly poetic!

We could all use a friend such as this Terry, and those of us that have them ... we should be pleased if we could express ourselves with even half of the grace that you have here.

Well penned, sir.
