Friendship is a Garden
Friendship is a garden
that blooms within the heart.
Its soil is rich and fertile
with love's presence at its start.
Watered by love, the seeds of trust
and loyalty will grow.
And sunshine from a dear friend's smile
will keep the weeds in tow.
Just as a garden must take time
to breathe, and bud, and bloom,
so too must friendship be shared
through both times of joy and gloom.
And when your garden blooms
after the years of faith and love,
you will agree your "garden"
is a gift from God above.
