On
a cold, rainy day friends bring sunshine,
and on a dreary, artic, winter evening, a
friend is a warm afghan or a comfortable,
old cardigan sweater you can wrap yourself
in. Soothing like a cup of hot chocolate
when your bones are chilled or a bowl of
chicken soup during flu season, friends have
a healing affect that goes through your
veins and thaws your soul.
As
refreshing as a breath of spring air,
friends are like dogwoods and gardenia
blossoms—they leave their potent aroma
behind, always reminding you they are there.
Like a sprig of lemon in a cold glass of
iced tea on a hot summer afternoon, friends
add just the right flavor to your life,
acting as a coolant during heated,
sweltering moments.
