Written for the Wind Beneath My Wings Contest for a special friend. |
YOU ARE THE WIND BENEATH MY WINGS In every lifetime, there comes a special friend who lifts you up with a smile and cheerful word. It's someone who chases away all self-doubts, who inspires and then makes their praises heard. She's an inspiration giver when I need it most, gives me confidence, is a cheerleader and guide. She's a good friend that is always there to listen and helps to put my own self-doubts well aside. I know I'm not the only one she encourages, she will always take the time to stay in touch. This lady is special and is a true friend to me and I have grown to care for her so very much! She's better than a sister, with a heart of gold, her spirit shows in the happiness as she brings her own joy of living into this old writer's heart. Sherri, YOU are the wind beneath my wings! A simple thanks just is not enough to give and there is no way that I can ever repay the kindness and support you've given me - and for all the help that's come my way. But a simple thanks and this little verse will have to do, I must confess, it's true; If ever there was a guardian angel on earth I know I've found her - that angel is you! Dedicated to Sherri Gibson with deep appreciation! Countrymom 7/21/08 |
