Silvina's Day

She is the lady that blushes easily and yet always  has a smile,
and it is always enjoyable when we can sit and visit for awhile.
She says "Oh Dear" and "Oh My" when teased just a tad bit,
but deep inside she is hiding her mischief and very sharp wit.

So she always makes me laugh and take time to ponder things,
as I will always see her as an angel on the way to getting wings.
She loves to hug annimals and talk with them when on her way,
and always bends over to smell the flowers before her each day.

Her faith is unyeilding and her desires are for everyone to see,
that the God she serves will be presented in love as life's key.
Her smiles makeyou wonder what she is really thinking of now,
as she  can be looking deeper while raising her analytical brow.

Thousands of miles away have come to seem like just next door,
and the fun and the fellowship always leaves me wanting more.
Remember always that friendship should be always treasured,
while standing together facing life in the good and bad weather.

So here I lift the cup of lifes pleasures and make a small toast,
hopingto be freiends forever especially when needed the most.
An' here is to clebrations of birthdays and especially Newy Years,
realizing also that all of the joy and loyalty will bring happy tears.
