As life goes by,
I collect beautiful gems.
Some of them I get to keep,
Some move along with the tide.
You are each gems.
Sparkly and rich in color,
Diverse in character.
Not one the same,
And yet a bright and courageous heart in common.
Each so precious,
I am grateful for each of you,
My friends.
My gems.
Nothing I can buy I deem more precious,
Then each of you.
Your support, our laughter,
All of it I appreciate.
My necklace of beautiful memories,
A bracelet of hearts,
Made of my gems,
I wear them proudly everyday,
Even if I see you as rarely as you are.
I will never forget all of these beautiful treasures I have found.
