A Unique Wish

Friend...

Silence is the best word-
if 'am asked to describe you,
For no word can express...
What my heart has in store...

All through my winter days
you stood by me like some grace,
I wish I were a poet,
To speak my heart in different ways...

When I was over burdened with work,
I stood there not knowing what to do
Its your gentle message...that 'stroke'
That helped me sort my woe...

When I was left alone to fight a deal,
I felt so let down and lost,
You were always there to shield
my rights and helped me whatever it cost...

When I felt sad and torn,
You stood by me like an angel,
You kept me off from feeling forlorn,
And helped me undo the tangle...

I thank God everyday,
For all His blessings in my life...
But Friend... I could only weep before Him,
When it comes to thanking Him for you...

Such a beautiful friend as you...
deserve nothing less than the best!
So, "Happy Birthday Dear Friend!
May you live life with matchless zest!"
