QUILTS AND FRIENDS
Whenever I wrap myself in a quilt
I think of a special friend
One who thought to pick up the scraps
Of my dreams that had crashed in the end.
A friend who thought nothing of taking the time
Though I knew how much time it would take-
To rummage through haystacks for needles I'd lost
And thread them again for love's sake.
Quilts are like friends, for the older they get,
You realize they're worth more than gold.
And I'll sell all I have but I'll keep friends and quilts-
All I'll need to keep warm when I'm old!
-Cora Eedlman
FRIENDSHIPS
It's something no one can replace.
It's something of true grace.
When things sometimes don't go your way,
Your friends will be there come what may.
They'll find it in their hearts,
To forgive and do their part,
To trust, and always have hope and faith,
There are few things on this earth so great,
So treasure friendship from the start,
And that it will not depart.
For it will always bring a smile,
This special love that makes life worthwhile.

FRIENDSHIP
Friendship is a priceless gift
that cannot be bought or sold,
But its value is far greater
than a mountain made of gold...
So when you ask God for a gift,
be thankful if he sends
Not diamonds, pearls or riches
but the love of real, true friends.
