Somewhere Over The Rainbow

This page, although not fancy, expresses my true feeling for my oldest and dearest friend, Clem. She is always there when I need her and knows when to call just to say hello. I try to return the favor but always seem to fall a little short of her dedication to our friendship. Thanks, Clem for being there all of these years. I love you!!

A friend is one to whom we may pour out the contents of our

hearts, chaff and grain together, knowing the gentlest of hands

will sift it... keep what is worth keeping and with the breath

of kindness, throw the rest away.

Old Friends

After all of these years, just old friends.

Through the laughter and tears, old friends.

What a find! What a priceless treasure!

Old friends like a rare piece of gold

Old friends make it great to grow old:

Til then through it all I will hold to old friends.

Oh God must have known

There'd be days on our own

We would lose our will to go on

That's why He sent friends like you along

Old friends yes you've always been there.

My old friend: we've had more than our share

Old friends I'm a rich millionaire in an old friend.

A phone call, a letter, a pat on the back

Or a "Hey I just dropped by to say..."

A hand when I'm down

A loan when I just couldn't pay:

A song or a story a rose on the INTERNET

A note that you happened to send

Out of the blue just to tell me that you're still my friend...

We've been through some tough times

When we didn't know whether we'd even have one thin dime

But that didn't change you:

And when we were big winners

And everything seemed to be finally going my way

You just cheered me on so glad to be able to say...

Old friends yes you've always been there

Old friends we've had more than our share

Old friends I'm a rich millionaire in an old friend

Count on Me

I may not have the answers

to the questions you will face.

I may not be the one to drive away your fear.

My list of imperfections is too long to erase.

But, you have my word, I will be here.

Lord, I know sometimes it seems

there's not much I can do.

I'm not a hero or a name.

But I'm a house upon a rock

when I rely on You,

a constant friend

whose promise will not change.

Count on me

in this world of shifting sand.

Count on me

when you need a steady hand.

I will work and pray,

mean what I say,

and live unselfishly.

Right the wrong.

Standing strong;

You can count on me.
