"Friendship Link"

A wooden bridge is like a friendship link
In meeting friends in the middle from another side 
New friends can be near or very far away
But friends just the same, with whom we abide.

My sister and I, through the web pages we've made
Have walked over the bridge almost every day
In reaching the middle we've found many new friends
Some living nearby while others live far away.

We've met people next door and in other states
From neighboring countries and across the sea
Both genders and all ages, from young to old
From all walks of life, even the military.

We've served coffee to all, some with sugar and cream
And Tabby the cat greets each friend at the door
But most important of all is the friends we have made
And with all we've gained, we couldn't ask for more.

Thank you for walking the wooden bridge halfway
And for meeting in the middle and spending time with us
We appreciate your friendship and the joy that you bring
You are wonderful and great and just plain marvelous!

"You've Got a Friend"

As I dream of a place with a bridge
the water running gently below
a flower garden blooming near
what a beautiful place to go

A wonderful place to dream of  friends
those from the past, those who are new
to forever be there for them
whether they are happy or blue

A garden of flowers is so like our friends
each one so different in their own little way
to be without them is hard to imagine
for them I thank God each and every day

As with flowers, some friendships blossom
and get closer and closer each day
some friendships fade with time
and turn our sunny days into gray

If there's ever a time you wish to say hello
or some time you wish to spend
I hope that I am always able to say
In me . . .
You've Got A Friend
