A lifetime of love
in a hug and a smile,A reason to visit and stay for a while,The strength of a bond
that's detained to last,
The joys of the present,
the warmth of the past -
These are the treasures
a fortunate few
Are lucky to cherish
all their lives through -
These are the blessings
on which we depend,
For these are the gifts
of a very best friend
