Yellow Rose of Friendship

Maggie, Great tribute to someone special near and dear to your heart? You are my best friend [I think you meant] across the sea. _____________________________________________________ Income-tax forms should be more realistic by allowing the taxpayer to list "Uncle Sam" as a dependent Anonymous

Janice For me a true friend is if you need help they drop everything and be there. I have done this for my friend and they were there when I needed them the most. I do this without a thought because I love them. Nothing they ask or not ask I will be there no questions asked. This is rare to find such a treasure who too would do the same for you. But when you call upon another you love and you ask for help - they did not come - sad was I but not suprised Electric blue

My friend is truely the best and only friend I have - with a heart full of love we are so alike. I hope you are resting and your heart settling but I know trust now broken is hard to deal with. I know this only too well But I am here my friend whenever you need me love and hugs maggie xx

I would like to see you draw out this sweet thought. Maybe tell us a little about the relationship and who this person is. Beautiful thoughts... Always, Cat

CAT A true friend is very rare as I to am to them. For I do drop everything to be there when needed no questions asked. They too did the same for me. So along with a card and a Dozen Yellow Roses a small thank you. But that is really never enough or even necessasary - but between us gifts are not needed only the love and true friendship we share it is just gold. Thank you my Angel of Green As you see my reply to Jayne no words really needed between true friends just love Electric Blue Angel

Beautiful poem. I thing it would flow a little better without the always. "On my friendship you can rely" but that is just me. I enjoyed it a lot. *S* Hope you are well. Respectfully, Rett: "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. " Winston Churchill

Rhett Thank you I agree. My true friend and I share so much. Gifts are not necessasary but a small token of my love is this poem along with a dozen Yellow Roses that I know are not needed but I know they will also love. To be there no questions asked at a moments notice nothing is too much to ask. Always my friend Electric Blue
