For My Friend Carol

Chezzie · Post by **Chezzie** » Sat Oct 11, 2008 10:47 am

Friends are special people. We can't pick our family, and we're sorely limited in the number of them at any rate. Society and mores (and often our own conscience) dictate we select a single mate. But our friends can be as diverse and infinite as the adjectives we choose. Our friends, in a very real sense, reflect the choices we make in life.

Treasures

by Ron Carnell

It's so hard to find the perfect breeze,

One blowing none too hard nor soft,

Carrying a scent of wild flowers,

And moving clouds about aloft.

It's so hard to find the perfect sky,

One blue and deep and bright,

Carrying a sense of openness

With geese and wrens in flight.

It's so hard to find the perfect night,

One warm, quiet and unflawed,

Carrying a mood of solitude,

And a closeness to our God.

Yet no perfection's so hard to find

As that which you extend

And none I'll ever treasure more,

Than to simply be your friend.

I have never eaten Marmite, Chris ! As a child, I'm afraid the smell of it put me off ! Oops...................................

All our Carol wants is for people to be happy, and I know that she helps that along as much as she can, regardless of her own RL situation. :-6

I suppose, like some others, I have to admit I quite like the old bugger !! :rolleyes:

Bless you Carol XXX

That's it from me,she knows how I feel.:-4:-6

Caring

Admirable

Reliable

Outgoing

Lovable

I hate to rain on someone's parade, but I'm giving all my winnings to the one person who we all had fun with in the Scav Hunt. Chez, you were a real sport about it until it became polictical.

Don't bother giving me any dosh babe as you know I'll be giving it back to at some point.:wah:
