pure? Her essence, a symphony
that's ever secure. Through trials
and triumphs, she has always
been on my side, solid, a pillar of
echoing hope, staunch, unwaver

of light, in darkness she'd guide.

in flight, scattering mirth, a glowing

peace, a sanctuary where all known
worries cease. Her loyalty resolute,

all my doubts about the days of our
future. She listens, holding my
dreams with hands so tender,

doubts grow slender. Her stalwart

nurturing my growth with steady
zeal.

How can I express the gratitude I
hold, for this friend, more precious
than gold or diamonds? No words
can capture the depth of my praise,
but i'll try, for she's been my sunshine
on life's darkest days. A landing place
of what true friendship is described
to be.

So here's to the human being who's
been my friend, my sister and life's
guide, this bond formed in love,
forever to reside. In the drapes of
life, she's a treasured thread, so I love,

with whom my heart's wed. We have
always fodged on and ahead, no
question asked.

unbroken chain, so wake me, then
say, to name the friend, and her
