Gladys Knight
Sometimes without warning or wanting,
something extraordinary happens
and touches us so deeply
We will meet someone who will make things better
with their smile or with a few words
That person will unknowingly open our mind,
our heart and our soul
to ourselves
That person will somehow bring out the very best in us
and remind us of our inner beauty
To meet such a person
who will 'see' you without ever meeting you,
as an individual filled with warmth, love,
compassion and sensitivity
Makes one feel so very special
I have met that person
And that person will remain forever
tucked away quietly
in the tiny corner of my universe
There are so many things I'd like to say to you...
Like how much our friendship means to me...
I'd like to thank you for all the wonderful things
you've ever done for me.
And for all the times you've been there
when I really needed someone.
I'd like to list one by one...
all of the special qualities you possess...
but that would take too long.
This is for every hour we have ever spent together...
This is for every precious moment we have created...
Just by being together.
For all the times we managed to work through our anger...
and our tears.
This is for all those simple little things
you have done for me
That in time have added up to be So great.
This is for every time that you were there
when I needed you
For all the times when you understood me
And for all the support that you have always given me.
This is for all the tenderness and love
that you have shown to me.
Most of all... this is for you from me...
To show you just how special I really believe you are.
To thank you for everything
you have ever done for me
For all the times I forgot to tell you...
Exactly how I feel about you
This is to remind you...
That I will always love you
Occasionally, we are graced with the presence
of an earthbound angel...
They are unable to stay with us for long,
but while they do,..
they bring joy and happiness to all they touch.
While they are here, we bask in their goodness...
and marvel at their contribution to the world.
When they leave, we are left with the devastation
that comes with losing such a wonderful being...
But we must remember...
the earthbound angels are not ours to keep.
They are ours to enjoy,learn from, and behold...
until they return home.
