My Bestest Friend

Words do go swirling
In my head to no end
Can't find the right words
To describe my best friend

You see, we first met
Quite by accident indeed
Our lives were quite empty
A friend we did need

The first conversations
You'd think would be clumsy
Strange though, they were natural
Warm and quite funny

We spoke random days
In each week of our past
Not to know where it was going
Not to know if it would last

I was growing quite fond of
My friend with brown hair
Time brought us closer
So much did we share

Moved to a best friendship
Though nothing we did try
We spoke only to each other
On days ending in "y"

Then came a big groundswell
Change born deep in the heart
A best friendship for life
God new it from the start

You see she's not just
A best friend in my eyes
Look very closely
She wears another disguise

Her soft touch on my life
Has done marvelous things
Her hat hides her halo
Her coat, her wings

She will never see
Just what she has meant
From the beginning I knew
She was heaven-sent

From this day I have now
'til life's at it's end
I'll thank God every moment
For my "Bestest" Friend.
