A gift was given to me,
Across the distant miles;
A package wrapped in laughter,
And filled with joy and smiles.
I pulled away the ribbons,
And took the greatest care;
When I reached into the gift,
I found friendship waiting there.
A friendship like no other,
A connection from the start;
Not one I could see, touch or feel,
Except here in my heart.
That gift so rare and precious,
Of friendship tried and true;
Touched my heart and blessed my life,
And is what I found in you!!
