Treasured Friendship

Finding and meeting you online
Chatting, telling stories, laughing together
I knew I had found a true friend
So thoughtful and kind
One who would be here
Whether far or near
When either needed an ear
Who can always give me a lift
When I'm feeling down and blue
And, I want to say
Knowing and having you in my life
I truly consider a gift
The times we've shared with laughter so hard
Till my tummy ached or I shed a tear
And, I want to thank you
For all the wonderful memories
Your friendship has given me
Precious moments such as these
I'll always treasure
