\"So Distant Yet So Close\"


I have this friend, so far away,
Yet I always feel her near,
She speaks to me in different ways,
That only my ears will hear.

Her written words are very few,
But she lights up every day,
By sending a card each morning,
Reaching out in her own way.

It seems that she knows my daily needs,
As the cards reflect my prayers,
Yet this angel friend I speak of,
Also has so much to bear.

So I wanted to tell her thank you,
And I asked God just what to do,
The answer was to write this poem,
And tell her I love her too.

For Sharon
