This Poem was written on June 18, 2021 and is the very first poem written to my wife. This poem is a tribute to the strength, peace and love that she exhibits thru her relationship with Christ. She has always been an example of doing the right thing even when I don’t want to. She has also been my rock in showing me what it means to trust and turn to Christ in the storms of life. Christ is finally my solid rock and Mary has shown me this. This is a tribute to my wife Mary.
Thank You For Being My Friend
Thank You for being a friend
In my mind we will never come to an end
We walk thru the valley together
With You there will always be a forever
Thank You for being a friend
Your love never comes to an end
You would give your life in place of mine
You walk thru pain and never whine
Thank You for being a friend
You stuck by me thru thick and thin
Your smile is as addictive as wine
Nothing ever dulls your shine
Thank You for being a friend
You’re a great example of not following the trend
You give and give but never seem to take
You’re a servant of Christ who is never ever fake
Thank You for being a friend
You’re an example of hope and that doesn’t end
I see the Spirit that lives in you
Your spirit is love and that shines thru
Thank You for being a friend
I know your love has no end
Your encouragement come from your heart
Your personality is as beautiful as art
Thank you for being a friend
You speak your mind and never pretend
You’re as strong as an ox that’s not beat by the plow
Thru a lot of pain you stuck with me somehow
Thank You for being a friend
You will die for your beliefs till the bitter end
I watched you grow and get closer to Christ
I also watched satan try to take you for a heist
Thank You for being a friend
You’ve been an example of being a friend
With that being said and all this being penned
From the bottom of my heart
Thank You For Being My Friend
